Focus on Utilities

In this episode, we explore the evolving landscape of diversity and inclusion within the energy and utilities sectors, extending our lens to broader implications across various industries. From increasing representation of women and minorities in leadership roles to fostering inclusive workplace cultures, we uncover emerging trends driving positive change. Join us as we delve into the strategies, challenges, and successes of organizations committed to creating more equitable and diverse environments. We navigate the intersections of diversity, innovation, and sustainability, illustrating the transformative power of inclusive practices in shaping a brighter future for all.

Amid a cost-of-living crisis, rising energy bills, an abandonment of gas and a lack of social license for big transmission projects with huge cost overruns, what more needs to be done to put the customer at the centre of the energy transition? Do consumers at all levels understand the role they have to play in the energy transition, are large energy users genuinely engaged and what can utilities do to bring everyone on the journey?

The hydrogen debate in Australia has been gaining momentum in recent times. As a highly versatile element that can be produced from a variety of sources, there is no doubt of the potential it has to revolutionize the energy industry. But when does this potential become a reality? And as the debate continues, what is its viability within the utilities sector?
