Energy Change Essentials - Professional Short Course (17-19 November 2026, Online)

Australia is in the middle of a major energy transformation. We are a world leader in terms of per capita installation rates for solar and wind energy, and new technologies for energy generation and storage continue to revolutionise the electricity sector. But with each opportunity comes challenges to be overcome.

The Energy Change Essentials short course is for professionals working in government, industry and community sectors who are interested in the energy transition, seek a comprehensive overview of the latest trends in energy technology, economics and policy, and want to better understand the social challenges of transitioning to a zero-emissions energy system.

Delivered by The Australian National University's (ANU) flagship Institute for Climate, Energy & Disaster Solutions (ICEDS), the course brings together leading energy researchers from across the University to share the latest research and discuss solutions.

Early bird registrations are open until 3 November 2026. Tickets close on 10 November 2026. Group discounts are available.

Bookings are via this Humanitix page. But for more details on the course, go to the ICEDS course website.
