Microgrids in a Net Zero Future

AMCOE and Lithum Valley

What role do microgrids play in contributing to a net zero future?

Legacy Living Lab

Net zero essentially means contributing nothing to global warming. Such a goal suggests that a country would not put any more man-made carbon into the atmosphere — for example through greenhouse gases created when fossil fuels are burned — than it removes from it.So, why are microgrids important to delivering towards a net zero future? A microgrid is a self-sufficient energy system that serves a discrete area, such as a university campus, hospital complex, business centre, or neighbourhood. Within microgrids are one or more kinds of distributed energy (solar panels, wind turbines, geothermal) that produce its power and contains a source of energy storage, typically from batteries. The Australian Microgrid Centre of Excellence and Lithium Valley would like to invite you to a special end of year event: MICROGRIDS IN A NET ZERO FUTURE. Come listen to experts speak about the importance of microgrids in delivering towards a net zero future. Drinks and nibbles will be served.Speakers Include:<ul><li>Chris Lund - Chris is an internationally recognised corporate sustainability expert. He has extensive experience and a passion for enabling companies and Government entities to become more economically, environmentally and socially sustainable.
