Senior
government expert Tom Lock to update industry on ETL plans
FEA Industry Conference, 9th & 10th
November, 2022, Chesford Grange Hotel, Kenilworth
FEA has announced an exciting
addition to this year’s Industry Conference platform, with the much anticipated
developments of the Energy Technology List (ETL) to be presented by Tom Lock, an
expert advisor to the government for the project.
FEA has lobbied hard over the
years for the extension of the ETL, arguing that the benefits for equipment
buyers could have a big impact on meeting sustainability targets, but that to
have that impact there need to be many more equipment categories on the list. Recently the government has suggested it will
be extending the scheme.
Lock, an International expert
is a consulting director at ICF, and has worked with the Department for
Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) since 2015. As well as programme managing within the ETL,
where he led the review, performance and standard setting process for more than
60 technologies, he has also been involved in areas such as the BEIS energy
using products programme and the revised Ecodesign and Energy Labelling
regulations.
“We are absolutely delighted
that Tom Lock has agreed to unveil the latest plans for the ETL at the Industry
Conference,” says Keith Warren, chief executive of FEA. “As one of the UK’s leading experts his
thoughts, comments and insights are hugely influential. I am certain that delegates will be following
his presentation with rapt attention, and dissecting it with a fine tooth comb
afterwards!”
A packed Conference programme
sees a strong speaker platform covering areas as varied as the economy,
connectivity and diversity. Broadcaster
and TV business presenter Nina Warhurst is conference chair and will be
delivering the keynote address.
