The Northern Ireland Energy Summit 2025 sets out to explore how we can drive a cleaner, greener and more prosperous economic future for the region
The Northern Ireland Energy Summit is set to return for its second year, taking place on Wednesday 24 September 2025 at the International Convention Centre (ICC) Belfast.
Once again powered by CASE (The Centre for Advanced Sustainable Energy), the strategic partners for this year’s Summit are Capita, NIE Networks, NI Gas Networks, SONI and Transmission Investment.
Bringing together leaders from across the energy, infrastructure, business and policy landscape, the all-day conference will shine a light on how energy can help supercharge economic growth in Northern Ireland as we strive to meet ambitious climate targets.
This year’s Summit will build on the success of the inaugural summit in 2023, challenging how Northern Ireland can learn from and work together with other regions across the UK, Ireland, Europe and further afield to address climate change.
Key themes throughout the day will include connectivity and security of supply, alongside exploring the crucial role of communities in energy clusters and examining Northern Ireland’s unique agricultural proposition as an important enabler in the energy transition.
Professor David Rooney, Director of CASE and Dean of Internationalisation and Reputation within the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences at Queen’s University Belfast, said: “The inaugural Northern Ireland Energy Summit in 2023 was a powerful demonstration of coming together to explore shared challenges and identify opportunities in energy.
“In 2025, we want to build on that momentum. Our focus must now turn to how we energise our economy by embracing cleaner, smarter energy systems and solutions that benefit everyone in society.
“This means working together – government, business and academia – to harness innovation, unlock investment and ensure we work together towards our climate and net-zero ambitions.
“It is only through such joined-up thinking and collaborative action, couple with a whole-of-government approach, that we can create a more prosperous economic future for Northern Ireland.”
