Energy, resolved.

The expansion of technologies now interacting with electricity networks, such as Consumer Energy Resources and Electric Vehicles, bring a need for a more controllable and visible network. This requires an abundance of real time data feeds and the analysis/models equipped to deal with them. These capabilities will require support from artificial intelligence and automation in the future.

COP28 Dubai reflections on how the world is contending with the energy transition

We have been working with the proponents of the Jemena Dynamic Electric Vehicle Charging Trial, also known as the EV Grid Trial, including Jemena, AusNet Services, and United Energy in Victoria, Evoenergy in the ACT, TasNetworks in Tasmania, and JET Charge, to analyse quantitative and qualitative datasets from the trial to identify key insights and lessons learnt.

With several major electricity transmission developments underway, social licence to operate is crucial to appropriately balance the need to transition to renewables with the need to minimise any adverse impacts of transmission developments on communities and landowners.

Grid connected batteries are becoming a key feature of the renewable energy transition. While benefits include their potential to contribute to energy system security, reliability, and affordability; drawbacks relate to nascent commercial parameters and regulatory settings.
