What will the electricity industry look like in 2050? How will the 4th Industrial Revolution reshape our future?
Changes in engineering, new technology and market innovation are reshaping the global energy sector. New Zealand's focus is clearly on delivering a low carbon economy, smart energy and enabling emerging technologies.
To deliver a better life for New Zealanders, engineers can shape and deliver our 'green growth' future through being innovators, influencers and change makers. Innovation, technology, a customer centric focus, distributed generation, transport energy, big data, asset management and regulatory models are about 'engineering' - and that is a key to enabling our energy future.
The 2019 EEA Conference is New Zealand's largest technical power industry event. It brings together national and international thought leaders, innovators, engineering practitioners, regulators and leading technology companies.
The Trade Exhibition is the showcase for technology companies and their products and they came from around the world to take part as exhibitors, speakers and attendees. It was a great opportunity for them to profile the latest services and products and for you to engage with them and learn about the benefits and opportunities from new products/services.
The EEA event, in the heart of Auckland, delivered thought provoking keynote presentations, interactive panel discussions and technical papers on subject areas that we believe are most relevant to people working our industry.
