Parliamentary Review of Powersystems in the energy sector

September 19, 2017

Powersystems appears alongside UK Prime Minister Theresa May in the 2016/17 Parliamentary Review. Established by former minister The Rt. Hon David Curry in 2010, The Parliamentary Review’s September release is now a key fixture in the political calendar.

Powersystems  features alongside the Prime Minister and a small number of outstanding organisations in a document that looks back on the year in industry and Westminster. The main aim of the Review is to showcase best practice as a learning tool to the public and private sector.

Across all policy areas, The Parliamentary Review is sent to over half a million leading policymakers. The articles in the Review act as both a blueprint for success and a template for reform. Powersystems were honored to have been given an opportunity to write an article about the energy sector, Powersystems business, and the future of the industry in the prestigious yearly Parliamentary Review of the Energy Sector.

The review also features words written from the Prime Minister, and an overview of major important events over the last 12 months, from Brexit to Nuclear Energy, the future of fossil fuels, and of course, the Renewable Energy Sector.

The Prime Minister commented that “This year’s Parliamentary Review follows a significant year in British politics” and this is reflected in the articles from leading journalists and best-practice representatives alike.

The PM’s former cabinet colleague, Sir Eric Pickles, who was recently appointed Chairman of the Review, said “It has never been more important for government to hear the views of business and the public sector in a constructive forum. It is also a vital time to share best practice and progress.”

The Parliamentary Review’s director Daniel Yossman concurred, saying Powersystems and other hardworking organisations from across the country have come together to make this year’s Review possible.

Sharing knowledge and insight with both peers and government is essential work and I am delighted that this year’s Review will reach every corner of the British economy.

It’s always a real joy to hear from policymakers who tell me that something they have read in the Review has had an effect on their thinking.

It is my belief that innovation is contagious, if only it is given the platform to spread. It is the Review’s purpose to provide this platform and I am confident we are fulfilling it.”

Powersystems commented ‘After 45 years of engineering excellence, the article comes at the right time for us to reflect at what we have achieved, major landmarks along the way, and what we hope for the future of both the company and the industry as a whole.
