EN26 Innovation Tour
$250 per person - NOT included in delegate registration
South Australia (SA) is widely recognised as one of the world’s most advanced clean energy economies. Not only does it have one of the highest shares of wind and solar generation globally—producing 74% of its electricity from renewables in 2024 for around 300 days of the year—but SA’s daytime electricity demand is met entirely by renewables. With this in mind, we are pleased to offer the EN26 Innovation Tour for visitors to SA.
