ABOUT THE NSW/ACT CHAPTER

The NSW/ACT Chapter of EESA supports its members across NSW and the ACT by:

Running an annual one-day conference (normally in Sydney) where participants are encouraged to come, listen, participate, network and be informed. In addition live feeds of the entire program are provided to “online participants” around Australia. The annual conference focusses on the subject areas currently impacting the electric energy industry and the many businesses that interact with and support these businesses.
Arranging field visits to particular sites and activities of interest to members
Arranging one-hour live webinars across a range of topics – generally on a monthly basis. For those unable to participate in these events live, these webinars are then available to be viewed by EESA members on the EESA website at a time that is suitable to them.
Arranging short presentations on key topics for people to attend in person and network with their peers. Again these are recorded for EESA members to view at a later time

Coordinating participation by relevant industry experts in CIRED and CIGRE committees
