Get a glimpse into what makes our events unique!

Aurora Battery Conference 2019 was our fourth annual event dedicated to flexible energy, batteries and energy storage. Joined by distinguished speakers and panelists, and informed by Aurora’s unique analysis, the conference brought together the insights and perspectives of the organisations and people who will shape the future system.

We heard business leaders, government, and experts discuss and debate the issues central to the low carbon energy transition, including the need for flexibility, the role of flexible assets in achieving Net Zero, and the associated key risks and financing challenges.

Key topics included:

  • Evolution of the power market, system needs and emerging technologies
  • The role of flexible assets in achieving net zero
  • Key risks and financing challenges for flexible assets
  • The economics of merchant solar co-located with battery storage systems
  • Key risks and financing challenges for flexible assets
  • Labour’s plan for power sector decarbonisation and flexibility
