New.E Knowledge Exchange - March
Celebrate the beginning of 2025 with NewH2 as they launch their new brand “New.E”, reflecting their broadening endeavours in the new energy transformation.
The guest speaker Jo Lynch will report on an independent assessment of the environmental aspects of an offshore wind capability off the Hunter.
Lynch will be the guest speaker at the March Knowledge Exchange. An environmental advocate and community organiser, Lynch has been involved with the Hunter Community Environment Centre since 2018, and has worked extensively on issues related to coal-ash waste pollution and regional conservation. She is also active in the Hunter Jobs Alliance and RE-Alliance, focusing on equitable transitions to renewable energy.
Lynch's presentation will discuss findings from the Hunter Community Environment Centre’s forthcoming report on the Hunter-Central Coast Offshore Wind Zone. The report examines potential environmental impacts, including risks to seabirds and marine life, and proposes strategies to mitigate these effects. It aims to present research-based information on offshore wind development while addressing misinformation.
New.E will also launch the count down to the Hunter New Energy Symposium 2025 which will be convened on 21/22 May 2025.
Ample networking over morning tea will be provided.
