25.01.2022 Increasing numbers of DER on the grid are challenging utilities to rethink their planning processes - from linear to more democratised. What could a new distribution planning model look like? And which principles should underpin it? Smart Electric Power Alliance has some compelling ideas. https://hubs.ly/H0m_jvG0

23.01.2022 Renewables will be our primary source of energy by 2042. This summer weve seen the grid struggling with heat and fires, aging coal and limited options to manage the system, according to the Energy Security Board (ESB). Were not alone though; other parts of the world are addressing the same issues and getting on with the #energytransition #renewables https://hubs.ly/H0n8Krf0

22.01.2022 Adelaide City Council inks deal to go 100% renewable from July 2020. https://hubs.ly/H0mVB3L0

21.01.2022 Phenomenal turnout this morning for South Poles Climate Leaders Forum at GreenSync HQ. Thanks to Gene Blackley, Kiya Taylor, Paul Dettmann, and Polly Hemming for taking to the stage to talk solutions for transitioning to a below zero emissions society.

20.01.2022 By 2040, can a power generation mix thats dominated by renewables really deliver reliable, affordable electricity, as well as increase Australias economic welfare? The analysts at PwC Australia modelled four scenarios and came to a clear conclusion: https://hubs.ly/H0n3kQr0

19.01.2022 For our international friends, this provides a good snapshot of why grid security, over grid reliability, is the critical issue for Australia to solve in the context of high-penetration rooftop solar. Also, it shows the place for new tech and software that can allow contracting of multiple services from DER to ensure security while keeping customer access preserved. #energytransition https://hubs.ly/H0nbSt90

19.01.2022 Great to see Monash University and @AEMOenergy joining forces to launch a new PhD program focusing on Australias energy markets. Multidisciplinary academic research plays an important role in the race to innovate; as are any efforts to support the next generation of tech innovators and energy leaders intend on solving the challenges of Australias energy transition. #energytransition https://hubs.ly/H0nkhZX0

19.01.2022 Its week one down and our whole team is settling into remote working life. A big shout out to our brilliant tech and office team who responded so quickly on Monday when the decision was made and have worked so hard to seamlessly transition all staff, without so much as a dip in productivity. Staying connected is important, especially during these unprecedented times, so its been great to see GreenSync'ers finding creative ways to be social, for example, meeting in our brand...-new virtual kitchen for a lunchtime chat, comparing WFH desk setups and lunch recipes (there may have been prizes involved), and even our pets antics. We feel very fortunate to have such an amazing team and this has only been amplified over the last week. #COVID-19 #SocialDistancing #remotework

18.01.2022 Summer is here, as is the question: How do we best soak up all that sun? Recently, GreenSync and Wood Mackenzie presented a facilitated discussion on opportunities and challenges sparked by the runaway success of solar PV, and on similar developments in relation to electric vehicles and battery storage. Listen to the podcast: https://hubs.ly/H0m4f1Z0

18.01.2022 Until recently, the automotive and electricity industry had little reason to collaborate. The rise of electric vehicles is changing the narrative, opening up opportunities for these two legacy industries - each with a unique skill set - to converge and collaborate. This is just one example of how previously detached industries are coming together to solve challenges and identify opportunities in a decentralised, low-carbon energy future.
