Australian governments are now committed to a net zero economy for Australia by 2050 and our vision is to enable this.

    We have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to co-design the future of our energy systems, and our core values revolve around Character, Commitment, and Connection. Join us as we contribute to this significant mission in the energy sector.

    AEMO's System Design division is responsible for planning the power system in the context of unprecedented transformation, supporting AEMO's mission of designing a sustainable energy system that provides affordable, safe and reliable energy for all Australians.

    The Future Energy Systems department sits within AEMO's System Design division and has accountability for evolving an engineering roadmap to 100% instantaneous renewables and implementing a number of strategic technical projects identified within it. This includes providing a holistic view of the engineering needs of the changing energy system, helping prioritise approaches that resolve the most pressing technical issues, and initiating action across industry to enable the NEM to realise its potential to manage 100% instantaneous penetration of renewables.
