Your partner for a low carbon future
Wed | 11 June
We are delighted to invite you to our Journey to a net zero Wales 2025 event. This event will be hosted by Salix, Welsh Government and Welsh Government Energy Service.
We will bring speakers from a wide range of sectors to share their ideas, visions, and breakthroughs, building a network of learning on the road to net zero. This is also a great opportunity to recognise, celebrate and discuss low-carbon initiatives that have been introduced by public sector bodies across Wales.
This event is designed for public sector attendees - it is free to attend, but spaces are limited and must be reserved in advance.

Rydym yn falch o’ch gwahodd i’n digwyddiad Taith i Gymru sero net 2025. Cynhelir y digwyddiad hwn gan Salix, Llywodraeth Cymru a Gwasanaeth Ynni Llywodraeth Cymru.
Byddwn yn dod â siaradwyr o ystod eang o sectorau i rannu eu syniadau, eu gweledigaethau, a’u darganfyddiadau, ac adeiladu rhwydwaith o ddysgu ar y daith i sero net. Mae hwn hefyd yn gyfle gwych i gydnabod, dathlu a thrafod mentrau carbon isel sydd wedi eu cyflwyno gan gyrff y sector cyhoeddus ledled Cymru.
Bydd hefyd yn gyfle i rwydweithio a dysgu gan gymheiriaid a bydd yn lle i sefydliadau drafod esiamplau arfer gorau i symud tuag at y nod hwnnw o sero net erbyn 2030.
Mae'r digwyddiad hwn wedi'i gynllunio ar gyfer mynychwyr y sector cyhoeddus – mae am ddim i ddod iddo, ond mae’r lleoedd yn gyfyngedig felly bydd yn rhaid cadw lle ymlaen llaw.
