Panel session report: Energy sustainability in defence

In-Depth

During a recent online panel session, experts from BAE Systems, the UK MOD, Supacat, Rolls-Royce and Williams Advanced Engineering explored the topic of energy sustainability in the defence sector. Jon Excell reports.

The push for net zero is fundamentally reshaping government agendas and many of our key industrial sectors. And that includes the world of defence, where energy sustainability is becoming an increasingly important focus both in terms of minimising the sector’s impact on the environment and ensuring that it is resilient to current and future threats.

Earlier this year, in partnership with defence giant BAE Systems, The Engineer brought together leading voices from across industry to explore the importance of carbon reduction to the defence sector and examine some of the innovations that are helping it rise to this challenge.

The following report examines some of the key topics explored during this discussion, which was live-streamed to a registered audience.
