Coming Events
Challenges for wind power in
SA
Speaker: Craig Oakeshott, SKM
Craig recently prepared a paper for the international clean energy
ministers’ forum on the lessons learned from the high penetration
of wind in SA. While wind development in the State has exceeded initial
estimates, and the rate of development has slowed, there is still
significant potential for further development and a number of active
developers ready to move. This presentation examines lessons learned and
potential future challenges that ongoing development may present.
Craig is a mechanical engineering graduate from Adelaide University
and has almost 30 years of experience in the electricity industry. Over
the last 15 years Craig worked for the Electricity Supply Industry
Planning Council and AEMO and was heavily involved in understanding the
high level issues that have faced South Australia with respect to its
participation in the National Electricity Market. He has also
represented the State’s interests on National review bodies and
supported SA government and industry in the ongoing development,
regulation and operation of electricity generation and energy
transmission and distribution in the State.
