30 October - 1 November 2017 Grace Hotel Sydney I Australia
In-depth learning session A Building a view of the NEM from the bottom up
The new world of technology solutions and intermediaries pose new and significant challenges for forecasting, and balancing supply and demand in the increasingly two-way electricity supply chain.
This workshop will build a view of the future state of the NEM from the bottom up, designed for all stakeholders in the energy sector.
Starting with trends already underway, and potential new developments, the session will explore the implications for the NEM of a world in which technology and intermediaries offer customers alternatives for getting what they want: affordable electricity prices and reliable electricity supply – with extras (like decarbonisation), but only after those two primary concerns have been taken care of.
The session will look to answer these key questions:• Whatdocustomersreallywant–andwhattrade-offsaretheywillingtomake?• Whatdoconsumersthinkaboutwhattheindustryisdoingontheirbehalf–concerning topics like security of supply, the value they place on reliability, system strength and affordability?• Howwellisconsumerengagementgoing–andisitbeingexercisedintherightplace?• Whatdifferencewillembeddednetworksmakeinthenewconstructionandretrofit markets?• HowmuchfurtherwillrooftopPVtake-upgo?Howmanyofthoseinstallationswillhave battery storage added?• Howquicklywillelectricvehiclesbetakenupandhowwillrechargingbearranged?• Whatexactlyistherole–andwhoshouldbetherecipient–ofmorecost-reflective pricing?• Willadvancedcontrolsandmoreon-sitegenerationfinallymakedemandresponsean active part of the electricity supply chain?• What’sthefutureforthebigretailersinaworldoftechnologysolutionsand disintermediation?• Whatpointintheelectricitysupplychainoffersthebestvantagepointforbalancing supply and demand?
