EIC Opportunities in Teesside 2026
Exploring Industrial Transformation and Decarbonisation in the North East
Join us for EIC latest cluster event where we will explore traditional industrial areas within the UK on their journey to decarbonise.
Now in its third year, the EIC Opportunities in Teesside event has become a flagship gathering for industry professionals driving the UK’s energy transition. Each year, we welcome over 120 delegates from across the energy, infrastructure, and supply chain sectors all coming together to explore the next wave of opportunity in one of the UK’s most dynamic industrial regions.
Once synonymous with steelmaking, shipbuilding, and chemical production, Teesside is now writing a new chapter one defined by clean energy, innovation, and sustainable growth. The region is fast becoming a trailblazer in decarbonisation, leading the way with world-class projects in hydrogen, carbon capture, offshore wind, and renewable power.
This year, we will also explore the growing nuclear opportunities emerging in the region, including developments in Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and their potential role in supporting long-term energy security and industrial decarbonisation.
With its strategic coastal location and thriving cluster of industrial and power companies, Teesside is central to achieving the UK Government’s net-zero ambitions. This event will uncover how businesses can get involved in the region’s transformation and contribute to a cleaner, greener industrial future.
