Energy Lab
We undertake relevant, significant and multidisciplinary research on energy markets in collaboration with industry and policymakers. We build on Monash Business School’s existing strengths in energy research to enhance impactful collaborations and partnership opportunities sourced and coordinated across Monash by the Monash Energy Institute (MEI). We grow the connections and relationships with key external industry and government partners such as the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), Woodside Energy, RACE for 2030 CRC, the Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) and the Australian Energy Regulator and Energy Consumers Australia. We often do this through MEI's spin-out initiatives, such as the Grid Innovation Hub (GIH), which is Monash Net Zero 2030 Initiative’s living lab.
A current area of focus is the challenge of accelerating the transformation of the power sector through the GIH, tackling the urgent Energy Market Design problem with the AEMC, ARENA, and Power Systems Consulting.
