Young Energy Professionals - Sydney

Young Energy Professionals - Sydney is a group from within the Australian Institute of Energy – Sydney Branch which holds events/workshops aimed at helping Young Energy Professionals in their careers by:

Encouraging discussion on energy issues
Providing a network for Young Energy Professionals
Creating a platform for continuous learning
Offering interesting and relevant events for professional and personal development.

While YEP events are energy industry focussed we encourage young professionals from all disciplines to attend. Our membership includes lawyers, accountants, scientists and economists in addition to engineers and technologists.

YEP membership is automatic for members of the Australian Institute of Energy – Sydney Branch who are under the age of 35 years. While we encourage interested parties to become members of the Institute (YEP events are free to AIE members) our events are also open to AIE non-members to attend.

YEP is a great opportunity to meet individuals from a diverse set of backgrounds who also have an interest in energy and the energy industry.

How do I become involved?

Please come to one of our events!

Networking / Fundraising Event in Support of Pollinate Energy

Speaker: Monique Alfris, cofounder of Pollinate Energy

The Australian Institute of Energy, Young Energy Professionals invites you to a networking and fundraising event to support the work of Pollinate Energy.

Pollinate Energy was founded in 2012 by five young Australians from the energy sector to provide solar energy to people living in urban slums in India. The organisation does this by training Indian locals to become micro-entrepreneurs and providing a fellowship program, which gives young Australians exposure to the inner workings of a social venture.

At the event, Monique Alfris, co-founder of Pollinate Energy, will discuss her experiences in starting Pollinate Energy, the work of the organisation and what life is like for a young energy professional in the Indian energy business world.
