Energy storage – the quiet half of the renewable energy revolution
This session is part of The Australian Net Zero and Circular Economy Conference featuring nearly thirty events for academics, startups, government, and industry
The success of the future energy system around the world will rely on large amounts of energy storage capacity. This will enable 100% renewable power systems to provide reliable and affordable energy.
Cameron O’Reilly, Associate Director Marsden Jacob Associates, is one of the chief architects of the NSW Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap. Cameron will discuss his pioneering work, how short duration and long duration storage will be required in the coming decades and reflect on emerging technology.
Glenn Platt, from Emergent Group, will bring his vast executive experience to critically review the infrastructure, logistic and technical challenges we are facing to deliver energy storage projects. Glenn’s review will have implications through the value chain.
