Dear Colleague
With stringent emissions targets, ageing eets, and political, economic and nancial barriers facing the mass deployment of new nuclear and renewable assets, the European energy sector currently faces major capacity challenges. To achieve the EUs goals of reducing C02 emissions, half of Europes fossil fuel power stations alone must be replaced, and with nations otherwise facing a black hole in generation capacity, a new generation of modern and environmentally efcient fossil fuelled power plants is needed to provide exible generation capacity. We are delighted to invite you to European New Build 2011, which will offer you an operationally focussed insight into the planning, construction, mobilisation, commissioning and successful operation of new build CCGT and coal-red power plants. Bringing together a diverse range of speakers with experience in new build project management, O&M implementation, plant management, CCS demonstration, and environmental regulation, the event is your opportunity to ensure that you incorporate all of the appropriate lessons learned and advice from the experts into your new asset development strategy. Eleven operator led case studies will give you practical insights into: Planning and ensuring consent for new asset development site selection, public engagement and environmental compliance at London Gateway Logistics Park, Coryton Overcoming site selection challenges and building a carbon capture ready CCGT at Cockenzie Contracting and construction of large CCGT projects in Europe Vattenfalls perspective Operational implementation and mobilising an asset management strategy at West Burton CCGT Effective O&M implementation at Akenerjis new build projects and the impact of plant exibility on the new build market Current project status of the Moorburg and Boxberg coal-red power plants and the role of coal-red power generation in a carbon constrained future. The challenges for building, retrotting and demonstrating Carbon Capture and Storage at new build and existing sites Scrutinising the risk management processes of your project Seamless transition from construction to commissioning and into commercial operations at Maastroom Power Plant Developing and nancing projects at a global level the perspective of an IPP European utilities are now investing billions of Euros in efcient coal and gas-red power stations that will continue to form the backbone of secure and exible energy supplies. Dont miss this opportunity to share your experiences with leading European operators, discover investment opportunities and assess the future direction of new fossil fuelled projects in a carbon constrained future. We look forward to welcoming you to London. Yours sincerely,
