The latest developments at SGA - February 2010
Smart Grid/Smart City project and SGA conference
The next few months will see the commencement of the Smart Grid/Smart City project.
But the rest of the industry is also working on smart grids. There are now several smart meter/smart grid projects underway in Victoria and there is plenty of action elsewhere in the country as well.
Aside from the Smart Grid/Smart City project other topics also demand our attention –such as customer engagement and security. These two key issues will be discussed at the first SGA conference of the year, which will take place in Sydney on 9 and 10 March (guests are welcome).

Smart Grid Australia Vision Statement
- The coming decade will be defined by a rampant growth in new Intelligent Energy technologies, just as computers and communications devices have defined the recent past. Making our energy systems “smart” holds the key to protecting our planet and to fueling our global economy.
- Innovative approaches to deliver energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly processes and products will be enabled by the application of information systems to production, logistics, product design, transport, consumption and many other aspects of our day-to-day activities.
- Empower the user to actively participate in this process, through a range of interactive intelligent home appliances, allowing them to save energy and assisting them in addressing the inevitable price increases for electricity.
