In this podcast, Beyond Zero radio talk to Dr Stuart Johnston, Executive Director, Assets and Network Transformation at Energy Networks Australia (ENA), for a return interview (part 2) due to popular demand. This time about ENA's network opportunity maps.  The Australian Renewable Energy Mapping Infrastructure (AREMI) web portal is a spatial data platform for the Australian renewable energy industry. AREMI shows layers such as renewable energy potential,  and network opportunities like Available Distribution Capacity, Proposed Investment, Annual Deferral Value andPeak Day Available Capacity.

"The Institute for Sustainable Futures (ISF) at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) led development of the interactive maps to consolidate information on current and future capacity constraints in electricity network infrastructure across Australia based on network planning report data. The interactive  maps include spatial data from all electricity network businesses on network constraints, planned investment and the potential value of distributed energy resources to provide network services across the Australian National Electricity Market (NEM).” [Photo supplied by Stuart Johnston]
