The future of energy

Our very own Carl Daley presenting at Futureproofing Procurement Conference

The Australian energy market is facing huge challenges in the transition from carbon-intensive generation to renewable generation. Looking at the east coast of Australia, the domestic natural gas market is now connected to the global LNG market, and as a consequence the low-cost gas that used to underpin our gas market for power generation, industry and smaller consumers is now a long distant memory. The power market has closed more than 6,000MW of generation capacity due to aging and uneconomic power plants. Australia is experiencing a rapid change in the energy markets. The fastest pace ever experienced in our history, with the pace of change accelerating, not declining.
