South Australia has been selected as the host city for the Australia 2024 International Renewable Energy Conference (AUSIREC).

AUSIREC, held in April 2024, will bring together international Heads of State, Prime Ministers, Ministers and more than 3500 delegates to share the latest developments in renewable energy and plan for a renewable energy future.

Held biennially since 2005, the International Renewable Energy Conference is one of the world’s leading renewable energy events. With previous conferences having been held in Beijing, Washington DC, Delhi, Abu Dhabi, Cape Town, Mexico City, Seoul, and Madrid this year, the selection of Adelaide as the host for the 2024 event is a testament to the strength of Australia’s renewable energy industry and South Australia’s strategic vision.

AUSIREC will be the first time an IREC conference has been held in Oceania. As a result will place a strong focus on regional participation, particularly from Pacific Island nations. These countries have been leading the call for increased action on climate change for many years and stand to benefit directly and indirectly from the renewable energy transition.
