Energy Tetris - Sydney

It has been described as 'power poker' but understanding the relative value of technologies in the energy transition is actually more like Tetris - working out how the different pieces fit together while they're all moving rapidly.

That's why The Energy has put together Energy Tetris - a unique event designed to bring together energy leaders and experts in their field to share their frontline knowledge and learn from each other.

2025 has been a year of very mixed results in the rollout of renewable energy. Wind has stalled, batteries have boomed, and more people have shifted behind gas as a transition enabler. What do these market developments mean for investment, policy or system management, and what lies ahead?

Energy Tetris is your chance to ask the experts the burning questions you have. It’s a safe space to learn about areas adjacent to where you work, from the people in the know.

Improve your understanding of the individual technologies in the NEM and how they interact, and what next year might bring.

The event will cover the following themes:

• The emerging role each energy technology plays in the modern NEM and in the 24-hour energy system
• Strategies to engage with other technologies in the mix
• The importance of system security as the modern NEM continues to evolve
• Future challenges and opportunities for the NEM across technology development, policy, and market design

This event has been designed to bring experienced asset managers and investors together with those working on policy and emerging technology in the NEM to learn from each other. If keeping across the NEM’s rapid evolution is part of your role, then this event is for you.

Info: Solar, battery, and long duration energy storage, the economics and risk appetite across 4–8-hour batteries, vanadium flow and other emerging tech, plus commercial realities of bankability

Info: Exploring cost and supply chain, curtailment, and planning bottlenecks and how these vary across VIC, NSW, and QLD

Info: Connecting gas, hydro, and ancillary services to AEMO’s upcoming ISP and the transition away from coal

Info: Lessons from those with a holistic view of the market
- Which technology is leading and how that might change over time
- What we’re expecting from the next ISP
- What the NEM review might do to the investment mix
