As the clean energy sector grows, so must the sophistication of the community engagement strategies being deployed by developers and operators. This session will include presentations on how to understand and respond to community outrage, harmonising benefit sharing strategies within a renewable energy zone to maximise outcomes and more.
LEARN MORE
Managing a weak grid
This session will feature speakers from AEMO, GHD Advisory and WSP
As more asynchronous generation connects to the grid and synchronous generation exits, maintaining a strong system becomes more challenging. Requirements to ‘do no harm’ and pursue system strength remediation are some of the most problematic parts of the grid connection process. In this session experts will discuss the current challenges faced by industry as the generation mix continues to change.

From electricity market outlooks and investment trends to public policy settings, this session will look at the major opportunities and challenges facing the large-scale solar industry in 2020 and beyond.
Managing a weak grid
This session will feature speakers from Energy Queensland, Octopus Investments Australia and Total Eren
Solar projects are locating at the peripheries of the grid to take advantage of high-quality solar resources. This is proving problematic as these are typical weak parts of the network, which in turn is complicating the grid connection process through requirements for projects to undertake full impact assessments and pursue system strength remediation. Come to this session and listen to different perspectives from different industry players on the current challenges faced by the industry as the generation mix continues to change.

The election of Joe Biden as US President is a watershed moment for global climate policy. By recommitting to the Paris treaty, setting a 2050 zero emissions target and promising an unprecedented program of clean energy spending, the Biden administration will have a profound impact on the world's transition to a clean energy future.
The implications for Australia are significant, with the Biden administration's ambitious agenda expected to increase the pressure on other countries to play their part. Join us for a fascinating discussion on what this will mean for the global transition to renewable energy and how it could fundamentally change the way that Australia approaches climate change.

If 2020 has taught us anything, it's how to remain resilient when confronted with adversity. As we look towards A Clean Recovery and what it means for our industry and the economy, resilience will be one of the most important attributes in accelerating Australia's renewable energy transition. How does the renewable energy industry remain resilient in the face of uncertain and variable demand? How do we remain resilient when encountering grid connection bottlenecks out of our control? How do we build resilience in the face of unpredictable federal energy policy?
These are just some of the questions that will be answered in this not-to-be-missed Women in Renewables online event.
Throughout the webinar, attendees will be encouraged to take part in small group discussions to share the challenges they have faced and outline the strategies, policies and actions they have employed to build and foster resilience. The crucial role that diversity can play in fostering and enhancing resilience will also be openly discussed.

WOMEN IN RENEWABLES ONLINE NETWORKING EVENT
Hi Isabella
Women in Renewables invites you to our first online networking event for women in the clean energy industry.
Working through a global pandemic is unprecedented and brings with it a unique set of challenges we are all still working through. It also means there hasn't been many chances for women to network in 2020. Networking is a great opportunity to meet other women working in the sector, gain some fresh insight and some different perspectives.
Date Time Location Cost
Thursday 27 August 3.00pm - 4.00pm AEST Zoom teleconference Free
REGISTER
We are trialling a networking event online and we would love to have you join us. The event will take place over zoom and provide a platform to discuss some of the challenges and opportunities we are facing with working in a pandemic. Some of these challenges are related to technical problems accessing work remotely, childcare, managing people remotely and maintaining a healthy and connected company culture and team - just to name a few.
The event will also utilise breakout rooms for group discussion. There will be room to share stories and provide an opportunity to informally meet other women working in clean energy and share tips and suggestions for entertainment and sanity.
We encourage you to attend with both your cameras and microphones on to participate in group discussions and make new and meaningful connections.
