End of project knowledge sharing on the Jemena DER Hosting Capacity Project
You are cordially invited to join this knowledge sharing webinar hosted by Jemena, AusNet Services and UNSW Sydney
This event will be held via Zoom. An event link will be distributed to registered attendees prior.
Jemena, with its project partners AusNet Services and UNSW Sydney, have completed an ARENA funded trial to demonstrate innovative technologies to increase the hosting capacity of DER (Distributed Energy Resources) on a low voltage electricity distribution network and help create solar-friendly neighbourhoods.
Please join them for presentations and information sessions into various aspects of the project: bench testing, network modelling, installation and commissioning, early results and approach to trial and innovation.
