Energy & Climate Summit Sydney, 2024

Energy & Climate Summit: Renewable Energy and Transition Event in Sydney, Australia (Oct 21-22, 2024)

Event Description

Australia’s energy transition is at a critical juncture, marked by the growth of renewable energy at the same time as a persistent need for fossil fuels. The recent extension of the Eraring power station’s life in NSW and the Victorian government’s concessions on the need for new gas underscore the ongoing importance of coal and gas in ensuring energy security during this transition. On the other hand, an influx of international capital and expertise is reshaping Australia’s renewable energy sector and accelerating the growth of utility-scale solar and wind farms.

Does Australia have the policy frameworks in place to foster investment in the transition to a low carbon economy? What is the path forward for hydrogen after Fortescue scaled back its ambitions? Should the government pick winners or stand back and let the market decide which projects proceed? Will the ‘Future Made in Australia’ policy turbocharge clean industries? The Australian Financial Review’s Energy and Climate Summit promises provocative and forward-looking debates on how Australia can navigate the complexities of the transition and ensure clean, reliable and affordable energy.

Held in conjunction with the Financial Review Energy Awards that will be celebrated with a dinner at the conclusion of the Summit on the evening of Monday October 21, 2024. Click on the register now button to access bundled tickets.
