Energy
In a major restructuring of CSIRO in 2014, Divisions were replaced by Flagships as the organization’s major operating units. The new Energy flagship was created by combining the 148 staff from the Division of Energy Technology with 191 staff (58%) from the Division of Earth Science and Resource Engineering. In 2015 the term Flagship was dropped by the Organization.
The divisional changes associated with the histories of these two divisions are summarized in the figure below with further details at the following links:
