Energy Security QLD
Queensland’s Energy Roadmap sets out a plan to reinforce reliability through future-proofing grid infrastructure, increasing gas generation capacity, and the rollout of regional and community storage solutions. Whilst aiming to balance supply, demand, and security, this shift in focus raises the question of how integration of renewables will be balanced with the role of conventional sources in powering the state’s energy mix.
Join the conversation at CEDA’s Energy Security QLD event, 26 February Brisbane, which will uncover Queensland’s priorities for delivering reliable, affordable power now and into the future.
