Are you passionate about supporting your community through the energy transition?

"Foundations of the energy system: A consumer advocacy toolkit" is a free knowledge-building course that will provide new and existing consumer advocates with foundational knowledge on the ongoing transformation in Australia's energy industry and markets. This course is offered by the University of Melbourne and supported by the Energy Consumers Australia’s Grants Program.

No previous knowledge or experience in energy, engineering or economics is required. This program is for anyone who advocates or speaks on behalf of consumers or their community and is passionate about building a more affordable, sustainable and fair energy system.

The training will be primarily delivered by Professor Pierluigi Mancarella from the University of Melbourne and the Melbourne Energy Institute - a research partner with Power Melbourne - and by other relevant national and international speakers.
