Smart and low cost: opportunities on the grid-edge

🔌 Opportunities on Australia’s Grid-Edge

To unlock NetZero, we must rethink the role of our low-voltage networks – not as static infrastructure, but as intelligent, data-driven platforms for decarbonisation.

In this powerful piece by Marion Rae (The Energy), EA Technology’s Head of Future Networks Yogendra Vashishtha and Chief Commercial Officer Mark Sprawson highlight the opportunity to turn our existing “dumb” distribution networks into digital, decentralised, and low-cost enablers of flexibility and resilience.

It’s about:

✔️ Saying “yes” to new connections faster
✔️ Turning grid-edge data into real-time, actionable insights
✔️ Embracing predictive analytics for proactive asset management
✔️ Moving from trial-and-test to scale-and-deliver

The message is clear: We already have the tools, platforms and intent. Now, we need decisive action to move beyond pilots—and build the intelligent networks our future depends on.
