Meeting Future Demand: Investment in the Western Australian Energy Market

Mar 10 2026

11:40 AM - 12:05 PM

The energy transition is progressing rapidly within one of the world’s most geographically isolated and unique power systems, the Southwest Interconnected System (SWIS). With the planned retirement of all State-owned coal-fired generation, there is significant investment opportunities in generation and storage. This session will explore these opportunities and provide an overview of Western Australia’s isolated and distinct energy market and its unique regulatory environment, which together are helping to accelerate the State’s transition to a cleaner, smarter energy system.
