The PPA market is changing fast — and so are the rules, the risks, and the opportunities.
Renewabl Day is where energy buyers, sellers, utilities, and industry leaders come together to cut through the noise, share real-world strategies, and talk openly about what’s working (and what’s not) in renewable energy procurement.
From market-shaping updates from S&P Global to hands-on expert sessions with EY, Ovo, SSE, and Cero Generation, and a live fishbowl panel on the future of PPAs, this is not another day of vague talk and theory. It’s the sharpest conversations in the room — led by the people actually making the deals happen.
Hosted and supported by Shoosmiths. Scroll down for full agenda.

Why it’s worth your day
This is a free seat at a table where the conversations are normally happening behind closed doors — or behind a significant ticket price.
It’s a day built for action, not just inspiration.
If you’re serious about navigating the PPA market in 2025, you’ll want to be in the room.
