Distribution Renewable Energy Zones: Oxymoron or the New Normal

Nov 12, 2024 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Proudly hosted by CutlerMerz, with a featured keynote by Energy Networks Australia (ENA) CEO Dominique van den Berg

Recent trends across the Eastern seaboard have seen gigawatts of distributed, medium-scale renewable generation applying to connect to regional distribution networks.

  • Will this lead to a new outcome, marking a step change in volume of distribution-connected generation?
  • Do the National Electricity Rules need rule changes to accommodate this?
  • Are recently established state-based frameworks (such as the NSW Electricity Infrastructure Investment Act) fit for purpose for this change?

Join us as we explore the next frontier of the energy transition and the prospect of establishing Distribution REZs.

Our featured keynote, Energy Networks Australia CEO Dominique van den Berg, will share insights from recent ENA research on the role of distribution networks in Australiaโ€™s energy transition. This will be followed by a panel discussion including Essential Energy CEO John Cleland, exploring the prospects of this new frontier.

This is an in-person event (registration essential, limited availability) with refreshments served.
