MEUC\u2019s September Energy Market and Policy Update Webinar, delivered with guest speakers from SE Advisory Services, will provide major energy users with a timely overview of the changing energy landscape and the factors influencing both risk and opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The session will explore how wholesale market volatility, non-commodity costs, regulatory developments and system changes are reshaping energy procurement and cost management. Delegates will gain insight into why total energy spend no longer always mirrors wholesale price movements, how grid constraints and electrification are affecting the energy system, and why flexibility and on-site solutions are becoming increasingly valuable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drawing on practical experience and market intelligence, speakers from MEUC and SE Advisory Services will share how leading organisations are adapting their strategies to manage risk, improve forecasting and optimise energy costs across the full cost stack. The webinar will conclude with an opportunity for delegates to discuss their own experiences and put questions to the panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Outline Agenda<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table  class=\" table table-hover\" ><tbody><tr><td>14.00<\/td><td><strong>Welcome<\/strong><br><em>Robin Hale, Chief Executive, MEUC<\/em><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>14.05<\/td><td><strong>A Changing Energy Landscape<br><\/strong>&#8211;
