Batteries are now projected to disrupt more than 50% of global fossil energy consumption by mid-century. In the fourth presentation of the Energy Transition 2026 series, David Glynne Jones will describe the functional role played by batteries in emerging energy systems and networks, their critical role in managing the variability of renewable energy sources and the stability of renewable energy networks, how they enable the electrification of demand previously reliant on fossil energy, and how they will transform the energy networks of the future.

David Glynne Jones is an independent advocate for the adoption of renewable energy and electrification across all sectors of the Australian economy. He is currently assessing the implications of emerging advanced battery technology for electrification of the Australian transport sector and, together with his colleague Derek Woolner, publishing articles on the strategic implications of emerging energy technologies.

There will be a Q&A session following the presentation, then light refreshments.
