Speakers: Upul Wijayantha (Loughborough University) Lucy Shaw and Gabriel Davies (CrossBoundary - joining remotely) Jonathan Radcliffe (Birmingham University) Peter Robbins (Open University) 2 Min. PhD Poster Pitches
10:30- 11:00	COFFEE BREAK
11:00-12:30 PARALLEL BREAK-OUT SESSIONS	v) Energy Justice- Revisited Following on from the theme of last year’s LCEDN conference, this session accepts that transformation of energy systems that act to entrench existing structures of socio-cultural inequality will fail to have any effect on poverty alleviation – therefore, what kind of energy justice is essential? Moderator: Britta Turner (Durham University, LCEDN) Speakers: Ben Campbell (Durham University, LCEDN) Jiska De Groot (Energy Research Centre, University of Cape Town) Rosie Day (University of Birmingham) Komali Yenneti (University of New South Wales)
	vi) Challenges and Opportunities in Delivery Models for Micro and Mini-Grids (session led by Strathclyde University) Following a brief welcome and introduction to the session and subject area, five speakers will present using case study analysis to draw out key themes on challenges in mini-grid delivery models at the nexus between technical, social and economic considerations for whole system sustainability. Each presenter finishes with key challenges or questions posed to spark discussion from the audience. The order of presentation “zooms out” from technical design to delivery models, productive use, regional/national planning and finally policy/institutional considerations. A facilitated discussion on the themes presented will ensue, taking an open framework of questions to presenters, feedback or brief summaries of related research currently being undertaken.Speakers: Yacob Mulugetta (University College London) Surabhi Rajagopal (LCEDN/ACCESS Coalition) Aran Eales (Strathclyde University) Jonathan Bowes (Strathclyde University) Alfie Alsop (Strathclyde University)
	vii) The Mini-Grid Game Participants in this session will have the opportunity to play a collaborative role-playing game built around a representation of a mini-grid system. Created by Energy Action Partners (Enact) the game is intended to be used as an educational and collaborative planning tool in designing a community-sized mini-grid system. Ayu Abdullah (Southeast Asia Director of Enact Partners) and Long Seng To (Loughborough University, LCEDN) will facilitate the session.
12:30 - 2:00	LUNCH BREAK
2:00 - 3:30 SHOWCASE SESSION	Engineering Skills for the Future Showcase: This session will outline the work that Engineers Without Borders UK and the Royal Academy of Engineering are undertaking, respectively, to enhance engineering education within the UK, sub- Saharan Africa and Asia. The session will aim to address the question; 'What engineering skills are needed for the future, globally, and how do we achieve this?' The feedback gathered from the delegates will feed into a report that the LCEDN/EWB/RAEng are producing for DfID looking at skills for the future in engineering related to the energy sector. The first half of the session will feature formal presentations from three people who have recently completed EWB placements, this will be complemented by presentations outlining both EWB’s efforts to ensure engineering education is fit for the future and an update on the RAE’s international engineering education programmes and opportunities.

PLENARY

Short Poster Pitches

UNDER THE GRID (co sponsored by EEG)

Electricity access can contribute to socio-economic development. However, communities can still face significant challenges in accessing energy services in areas covered by the grid, especially informal settlements. End users can use different sources of electricity to meet their needs in a fluid and strategic ways to enhance their resilience. This session challenges assumptions on energy access statistics by discussing the mechanisms that allow electricity to contribute to development, as well as the continued challenges faced by communities in accessing electricity.

Chair: Jon Cloke (Loughborough University, LCEDN)
