Innovation

Our energy system must fundamentally transform to enable society’s equitable transition to a low carbon, resilient future. Our increasing reliance on renewable electricity generation, the growth of distributed energy resources, and increasing value of demand side flexibility creates new opportunities for customer participation and community resilience.

Local electricity distribution businesses (EDBs), such as Orion, play a critical role in enabling the transition - connecting customers across our region and facilitating efficient operation of the local system for the benefit of consumers.

We must explore, learn and innovate together – as EDBs, as an energy sector, and as a region to co-create the energy future our community seeks. We invite our customers, communities, partners and stakeholders to join us on this innovation journey.
