The leading manufacturers of electro-mechanical products and systems within BEAMA have joined forces to address the pressing issue of embodied carbon in the built environment, launching the Product Carbon Initiative.

BEAMA, the UK manufacturing trade association for energy-related infrastructure and building systems and services, proudly announces the launch of its Net Zero Service.

This is the fundamental message behind the campaign launched by BEAMA, the trade association for the UK electrotechnical industry.

Industry leaders agree on net zero through electrification at BEAMA event. All agreed that there were unprecedented opportunities identified for growth in the UK Energy Supply Chain, but serious issues remain. 

Manufacturers of key energy technologies need confidence to invest in the UK. The new leadership needs to work fast to create pipelines for investment which will alleviate current supply chain pressures across the energy industry and ensure net zero can be met cost effectively.

The UK has great potential to develop a marketplace for Energy Smart Appliances, and this will be critical to meeting the UK’s Net Zero target. Innovation in the manufacturing of smart appliances and controls has already delivered huge steps forward.

  BEAMA has announced that it has published its 'Guide to Power Factor Correction'. This paper has been written with the member of BEAMA's Capacitor's Group, experts in the field of power factor correction. 

A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) has been signed between the UK electrotechnical association, BEAMA, and its Indian equivalent, the Indian Electrical & Electronics Manufacturers’ Association (IEEMA). Focusing on the themes of best practice, business delegation and international standardisation exchange, the MoU comes at a time of increased political and business collaboration between the UK and India.

On 2 May 2012, BEAMA hosted its second annual Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Conference on ‘Smart Charging Networks for Electric Vehicles’. Sixty delegates from infrastructure, meter and vehicle manufacturers; energy retailers; network operators and government discussed emerging issues in the EV industry and highlighted priority areas of action for the market to encourage the mass adoption of EVs.

UK households’ electricity bills by £938M a year,” says Howard Porter, CEO of BEAMA, welcoming the findings of an independent review of 100 smart meter pilots and rollouts across the world. “These savings could be delivered with the current UK specifications - smart metering systems including display devices need to be installed in UK homes as soon as possible,” he added.
