Eastern Australia’s Energy Markets Outlook 2015
Policy - Regulation - Feedstock - Generation Networks - Retail - End use
15 - 18 September 2015 l InterContinental Sydney l Australia
The premier event for Australia’s east coast energy sector
Dear Executive,
Official Event Advisory Panel
An efficient, affordable energy market in eastern Australia is critically important for millions of residential, public service and business customers and for the national economy.
Keith Orchsion Director Coolibah Pty Ltd (Panel Chair)
Opinions differ sharply on the efficiency and affordability of the east coast’s electricity and gas markets, a factor reflected in numerous inquiries launched by governments and parliaments in recent years.
Michael Riches General Counsel and Head of External Affairs Alinta Energy
The situation is exacerbated by disagreements on how to reduce the carbon footprint of Australian energy production. The Eastern Australian Energy Market Outlook conference, to be staged in Sydney from 15 – 18 September will address the real issues that need to be on the agenda of government and covered in the business plans of companies for the rest of this decade and in to the ‘Twenties.
Mike Swanston Principal Consultant The Customer Advocate
A high calibre slate of speakers will canvass the key questions needing to be answered in Australia’s transition to a new model of electricity and gas supply.
Anthony Vassallo Delta Electricity Chair in Sustainable Energy Development University of Sydney
Robust question and answer sessions, including panel discussions, will enable audience members to discuss these issues with influential market players. I look forward to chairing this event and to your participation in it.
Keith Orchison AM Director Coolibah Pty Ltd and Chair – 4th annual Eastern Australian Energy Markets Outlook Conference
Quest Events would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank the official event advisory panel who contributed their valuable time and expertise to ensure the agenda for this event is timely and relevant for all stakeholders in Australia’s east coast energy market.
NEW for 2015! 1. Opening keynote from the IEA’s Director for Energy Markets and Security, Keisuke Sadamori– the best insight you can get into global energy megatrends impacting your organisation 2. More CXO level speakers than ever before - giving you unparalleled access to the leading minds from Australia’s energy sector! 3. You spoke and we listened – our survey respondents asked for a stronger focus on sharing solutions to common challenges rather than merely discussing the issues so the 2015 agenda will offer more solutions to organisational challenges 4. An in-depth analysis of the most significant challenges facing the sector today, including oversupply in the wholesale market, the network transition (changing tariffs and distributed generation) and the lead up to Paris 5. A separately bookable third conference day dedicated to better understanding the rapidly changing east coast gas supply and demand dynamics 6. Two brand new pre-conference in-depth learning sessions to choose from to get the most from your event experience

Pre-conference In-depth Learning Sessions – Tuesday 15 September 2015
These long format sessions will provide participants with the opportunity to deepen their understanding of some of the most critical issues facing today’s energy market. Delivered using a combination of seminars, interactive formats and hands-on exercises these sessions will give all in attendance an opportunity to expand their knowledge and delve into some of the more complex issues in the market. Both sessions run for one full day. Registration and morning coffee is at 08:30 and sessions will conclude at 17:00. Lunch, morning tea and afternoon tea will be provided. Choose between:
In-depth Learning Session A:
In-depth Learning Session B:
This interactive learning session is designed for policy and strategy focused managers from the length of the energy supply chain who are looking to understand how new technologies in the energy market will impact their operations. The session will take a close look at a number of new technologies in generation, storage, metering and information technology and examine if, how and when they could become a part of the NEM.
This in-depth session is designed for senior managers from the length of the energy supply chain who need to understand the outlook for gas demand, supply and price on the east coast. With a number of reviews underway and uncertainty around whether new supply sources can meet a step change in demand, the impact on large users, generators, networks, retailers and governments is still uncertain. The session will take an in depth look at the current market environment and some of the key drivers of the future gas supply/demand dynamic and the implications for price right across Australia giving all those in attendance a far better understanding of the outlook for gas price, supply and demand and its implications for their business.
Assessing the impacts of new and changing technologies on the NEM and the implications of their integration
Forecasting east coast gas demand and supply dynamics under various scenarios
The session will also analyse the implications for industry players, potential new entrants and governments.

Don’t just take our word for it, hear what the speakers are saying about the event: “The markets have never been more relevant to customers and the industry. Demand, supply, services and information will all become commoditised. How do we differentiate and create value? EAEMO 2015 will be an opportunity for insight and reflection”. Ian McLeod Chief Executive Officer Ergon Energy
“Renewables and new technologies are set to play an increasingly important role in helping drive down energy and operating costs and reducing carbon intensity of the economy. The EAEMO conference provides a timely forum for discussion of these trends.” Meg McDonald Chief Operating Officer Clean Energy Finance Corporation
“The challenge before us is how to embrace and develop the new LNG export markets whilst maintaining a competitive domestic industry at the same time. EAEMO 2015 conference is an ideal opportunity for industry professionals to hear the issues first-hand and engage in developing an energy policy for Australia.”

CANCELLATION POLICY: If you are unable to attend an event, a replacement delegate may be sent in your place at no extra charge. Quest Events does not provide refunds for cancellations made more than 7 days after your registration is received, therefore the invoiced fee remains payable in full. Should you wish to cancel your registration within the 7 day cooling off period, we will refund your registration fee less an administration fee of $220 (GST inclusive) per delegate. Any cancellation must be made in writing and sent by email or fax. Quest Events will make available course documentation to any delegate who is unable to attend and who has paid in full. Unfortunately some speakers request their papers are not distributed. Quest Events will endeavour to ensure that conference programs are correct at the time of the event. Unfortunately we may need to alter the program prior to or during the event and reserve the right to do so without notice. We also reserve the right to postpone or cancel this event (when full refunds will be issued). Quest Events is not responsible for any loss or damage as a result of a substitution, alternation, postponement or cancellation of an event. See full terms and conditions on our website: www. questevents.com.au/content/terms-and-conditions. To view our privacy policy, please visit http://www.questevents.com.au/content/privacy-policy. Please Note: On-site registration / payment: AU$220 surcharge will be collected and no discounts are available. Early bird rates are contingent upon payment being received within 7 days of the registration date. Group discounts are available for three or more bookings from the same company (or on the one invoice). All discounts can only be applied at the time of registration and discounts cannot be combined. In the event that more than one discount is applicable, delegates will receive the discount with the highest value. All discounts are subject to approval. Please note the conference fee does not include travel or hotel accommodation costs.
