Andrea Voigt has been announced as a  keynote speaker for the 2026 IRC Business Briefing, Securing the Future of RACHP in a Volatile Electricity Market. Her presentation will examine the true cost of maintaining an energy system amid the commercial risks of rising electricity volatility, while also highlighting the opportunities created through early adaptation and investment.

The IRC Business Briefing will take place on 26 November 2026 at Austin Court, Birmingham. The programme will translate complex energy‑system change into clear commercial actions, helping delegates protect margins, futureproof assets, and identify new opportunities in an increasingly flexible, decentralised power market.

Tickets start from £90 + VAT. To register, visit IRC Business Briefing.
