Australia decentralized grid

Could a new distributed energy platform be available within 3 years?

An innovative new distributed energy platform designed to help electricity networks better utilise the increasing penetration of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) in the electricity grid, while helping consumers benefit from selling their generation could be available within three years.

What is decentralised energy exchange?

The establishment of market-enabling foundational registration, contracting and consent approaches that support consumers, networks and retail value stacking. Decentralised Energy Exchange (deX) is a market-enabling digital platform that aims to provide electricity networks with better coordination and control.

Could Dex be a key pathway to Transforming Australia's electricity market?

ARENA CEO Darren Miller said deX has the potential to be a key pathway for ensuring DER can be integrated into the grid, and would play a role in transforming Australia’s electricity market into a two-way, decentralised modern grid.

Why do we need a more decentralised energy exchange?

Around the world, changes to power system design, operation and management are urgently required as countries and regions accelerate their uptake of electricity generated by a variety of renewables. And industry, businesses and households are participating in a more decentralised energy exchange across their respective grids.

What is the intelligent grid cluster?

The Intelligent Grid Cluster is a major collaborative research venture between the CSIRO and the university sector under the CSIRO Energy Transformed Flagship. It explores the economic, environmental and social impacts and benefits of the large-scale deployment of intelligent grid technologies in Australian electricity networks. Home About us

How much power will Australia have by 2030?

The AEMO estimates by 2030 this figure could reach 35,000 MW, representing more than half the utility scale generation capacity at the time. A key aim of Australia’s G-PST research program is exploring how these distributed energy resources can best be monitored, coordinated and aggregated.
