AGENDA
This summer has posed significant resilience challenges for most utilities, from extreme weather events to operational and workforce challenges. This interactive utility-only roundtable offers a timely opportunity to reconnect, share experiences, and discuss upcoming priorities.
Anglian Water and Cape Town will each first present their summer experiences, followed by an open discussion exploring:
- What have been your key resilience-related impacts and lessons learned recently?
- Where do you see AI playing a role in strengthening or weakening utility resilience?
- What would you like to see from the European Alliance this year – whether that’s call topics, ideas for SWAN 2027 in Porto, research priorities, or other areas of collaboration?
