Data Centres and Energy: Can It Really Be a Win-Win?

Data centres are colliding with Australia's energy system, and after 12 months of debate, plus hard lessons from trials in Europe and the US, the policy and practice for managing that collision are finally taking shape.

This forum brings together the people helping set that direction, including

• Dominique van den Berg, Chief Executive of Energy Networks Australia,

• Tim Jordan, Commissioner at the AEMC.

• Eleanor Wood, Director - Networks and Pipeline Policy, DCCEEW

• Mark Ragusa, General Manager, Strategy, Ausgrid

• Kane Thornton, Head of Strategic Impact, CDC Data Centres

  Facilitated by:

• Tim Edwards, Managing Director, CutlerMerz

A candid look at the policy, strategy and grid integration decisions that will determine whether data centres earn the social licence to scale in Australia, and whether energy consumers share in the benefit.

An evening briefing for network businesses, developers, investors and government shaping this next phase.
