We were pleased to present two invaluable events which together give energy and operations managers the insights they need to take advantage of the opportunities of an increasingly dynamic energy market as well as on-site renewable generation.
Both webinars are available to view below.
Event 1: Energy Procurement and Load-shifting
Wednesday 13 October, 2021
With more and more opportunities for businesses to participate in the energy market and benefit cost-wise, how should you be setting up your your energy supply agreements to take best advantage?
This event looked at how businesses can unlock energy savings with a more flexible approach to energy use through sophisticated energy procurement, PPAs and demand response with real-world examples from the meat processing sector and also from BlueScope.

Event 2: Facility Integration and Thermal Batteries
Wednesday 20 October, 2021
This webinar focussed on technologies and systems you can implement to take advantage of more flexible energy contracts and procurement.
With more and more renewables being installed onsite, businesses need to create systems that shift the renewable generation to when it is needed on-site and also be able to discharge it to the grid when financially advantageous.
Our presenters outlined innovative district cooling applications and thermal storage technologies, including a solar powered 'water battery' installed at the University of Sunshine Coast, a thermal battery storing energy in aluminium and another in a concrete-like material. Speakers for this event:
