Join us for a conversation over lunch with clean energy, transport and climate change thought leader, Michael Liebreich. Michael is visiting New Zealand as a Z Energy guest and the Young Energy Professional Network (YEPN) is delighted to host an event with him. 

Nick Wilson, Manager Regulatory and Government Affairs, Mercury, will give an overview of the new Turitea wind farm: The 119MW Turitea wind farm will generate 470 GWh per annum on average, enough electricity to power 210,000 cars. When generation connects to the national grid at Linton, with commissioning expected to begin from late 2020, Turitea will be New Zealand’s third largest wind farm. It will be the first large-scale generation addition to New Zealand’s capacity since 2014.

New Zealand has set a target to reach 100% renewables by 2035... but what happens in the market as we push towards more renewable energy sources?

In this interesting thought experiment, Sue Paul (Robinson Bowmaker Paul) explores what market outcomes look like in the Philippine Wholesale Electricity Spot Market as the level of low cost renewable generation increases.

Join us for a FREE event, with beer and pizza of course, and hear some of the highlights from the 2018 Asia-Pacific Energy Leaders’ Summit and the 2018 APEx conference.

Come join us for a beer to hear about some of the things the YEPN are planning for next year!

A few years ago the BusinessNZ Energy Council (BEC) established a Young Energy Professionals Network (YEPN). The group has grown to over 200 members across New Zealand and this year extended it's official activities from Wellington to Auckland.

We are now looking to establish more of a presence in the Taranaki region, because, well, there are heaps of people doing energy stuff here!

Join us for a FREE event, with beer and pizza of course, and hear from the most innovative, savvy and promising start-ups of the SET 100. The Start Up Energy Transition (SET) is a leading international platform supporting innovation in energy transition. Don't miss out the opportunity to link with ike-minded people from various fields, share your experiences building a start up and promote innovation to make global energy transition a success

The ‘3Ds’ – the global energy sector is being transformed by three trends that are impacting demand and supply at an unprecedented pace: decarbonisation, digitisation and decentralisation. The energy system is in transition. New technologies and systems are set to revolutionise the way we produce and consume energy. These new technologies will lead to unprecedented levels of efficiency and require new ways of thinking. What are the key elements to achieve this transformation? What new skills are required across the energy sector to support the change?
