CSIRO sponsors inaugural conference on Sustainable Electricity in China and Australia

In recognition of the strong trade linkages and shared energy challenges which face these two nations, this specialist conference is devoted to issues relating to sustainable electricity supply.

This conference represents a unique networking opportunity for Australian business to connect with Chinese counterparts at the interface between electricity networks and markets, communications, customer and policy.

The programme of distinguished speakers from China and Australia covers a wide range of topics, spanning leading-edge technological advances, sustainability and pathways to adoption.

The event will invite active participation by commissioning an international Working Group to promote innovative technology and system solutions leading to the development of smart and clean electricity grids.
