Morning coffee
The kettle goes on when the doors open at 10:00. Come early, before the hall fills up and everyone starts shouting over each other.
A42 has seats, decent coffee and enough space for a proper conversation. Treat it as somewhere to stop for ten minutes between sessions, or to settle in for half an hour with a drawing on the table.

Somebody who has built this kind of job is on the stand throughout. No qualifying questions, no handover to a salesperson afterwards.
The diary closes at 15:00 and late afternoon is the good bit of any show. If you're still on site, come back round. There's a selection of beers in the fridge, including a decent 0% for anyone driving home.
We know how these days go. You plan to swing by, then a seminar overruns and suddenly it's half four. If you would rather not leave it to chance, the diary is open in thirty-minute slots from 11:00 to 15:00, with an hour off for lunch at 12:30. Doors open at 10:00 and we keep the first hour clear for whoever walks up.
Two of us can sit down with someone at the same time, so each slot holds {{ capacityLabel }}, or {{ slotsPerDayLabel }} across each day. Booking runs through the Armex calendar, which shows live availability and sends you a confirmation with the stand location.
Open the calendar →Rather not book at all? That's fine. Come to A42 and we'll find you a seat. Or email hello@armex-energy.co.uk and we'll sort a time between us.
Times shown are the slots we hold open. Live availability is in the calendar, so any slot above may already be taken.
Nearly everything we build falls into one of three areas. If your project sits awkwardly across two of them, that's usually the more interesting conversation, so bring it anyway.
Grid-scale BESS and augmentation on live, revenue-earning sites, plus behind-the-meter storage for industry. Bring whatever you have: a connection offer, a drawing, or just the site and a rough capacity.
Rooftop and ground-mount arrays for estates, manufacturers and FM partners. A roof plan or a list of sites is plenty to work from, and an early-stage question is just as welcome.
Port electrification and quayside HV, as installation partner to shorepower OEMs. Early stage is fine. The berth and a rough idea of the vessel load is enough to have a useful conversation.
Six of us are making the trip to Birmingham, and A42 is staffed for all three days. Whether you book ahead or wander over, you'll be talking to one of the people below.
