Kelly Butler

Kelly Butler, Strategy Director at BEAMA, the trade association for manufacturers and providers of energy infrastructure technologies and systems, offers key insights into the UK’s transition to electrification. This shift demands a holistic approach, with simultaneous upgrades across the energy supply chain to ensure clean power reaches end-users effectively. Success depends on clear, consistent policies that provide the market confidence to invest in critical infrastructure and technologies.

Butler stresses the importance of aligning efforts across government, regulators, and the supply chain to enable sustainable growth. Collaboration is essential, as is equipping contractors with the skills needed for emerging technologies. The industry must embrace a long-term view, recognising that confidence and readiness to invest are crucial to achieving the UK’s electrification and net-zero goals.

BEAMA is proud to be a Strategic Partner in the Electrifying Our Future digital series.
