Episode 16: AEMO’s plan for managing the integration of 75% wind and solar by 2025
Australia has extraordinary renewable energy resources. Parts of Australia are already experiencing some of the highest levels of wind and solar generation in the world, including one of the highest levels of small (residential) distributed solar photovoltaic systems. In recognition of the opportunity they present and the need to carefully manage the penetration of renewable resources into the National Electricity Market (NEM), the Australian Electricity Market Operator (AEMO) conducted the Renewable Integration Study (RIS). Released in April 2020, the RIS is the first stage of a multi-year plan to support a secure NEM into the future. In this podcast, we speak with one of the study’s authors, AEMO’s Chris Davies, who discusses the features, the feedback received to date, the evolution of the market and the critical next steps.
Featuring: Chris Davies, Manager of Future Energy Systems, AEMO and Gilles Walgenwitz, General Manager, Energy and Carbon Markets, Energetics
Out host: Anita Stadler, Associate, Energetics
