About This Event

Hybrid energy sites are becoming part of day-to-day operations across the NEM. This Melbourne networking evening explores the practical realities of operating generation and storage behind a single connection point, including the implications for bidding, dispatch and asset management.

Dr Victor Depoorter, Founder and CEO of Proa Energy Intelligence, and Edward Woodford, Principal Specialist – Energy Systems and Markets, will discuss their experience of mixed aggregates in operation. The session is free and includes drinks and informal conversation with people working in renewable operations, trading and asset management.

What you’ll explore

  • How commissioning a hybrid site differed from commissioning a standalone asset
  • Day-to-day operational challenges for mixed aggregates
  • What the speakers would approach differently next time
  • Emerging commercial opportunities for future hybrid sites
  • An open Q&A
