Summit Agenda                             

APSE Energy is running its 5th annual BIG Energy Summit!

The theme of the Summit is ‘Energising local government’ with a focus on hearing about projects that have been successful, the approach taken by those putting projects into action, the problems they have overcome, the policy context and the support that can get you, or keep your council, moving. The municipalisation of energy continues to develop and this summit is aimed at encouraging that movement.
