Why Model-Based Systems Engineering is so important to the
Australia''s energy system is a lot bigger and more complex than any plane. So CSIRO''s Smart Energy team is applying MBSE methods to conceive a transition to net zero emissions future. We recognise that no single software tool currently exists to model, study, analyse, or design Australia''s energy system as a whole.
Pumped Hydro Energy Storage and Australia''s Energy Transition
Pumped Hydro Energy Storage is a vital technology driving Australia''s energy transition, offering a proven and reliable solution for storing excess energy and delivering power on demand. Currently, 5-7 per cent of total electricity generation comes from Hydropower in Australia ( ARENA ).
Systems Intelligence an imperative for the energy
energy system transformation. The powerful capabilities of odel-based systems mengineering (MBSE), developed specifically to structure and derisk complex engineered system design and transformation, - are presently being used to a limited extent in the Australian energy sector. There is a significant
Smart Energy
The Smart Energy Mission''s goal is to enable Australia''s next generation of integrated and customer-centric energy systems. The Smart Energy Mission incorporates the work of teams from CSIRO Energy, Data61, Environment, and Mineral Resources to build more holistic systems intelligence into Australia''s energy transformation. This mission

What energy storage technologies will Australia need as
Pumped Hydro Energy Storage (PHES), Compressed Air Energy Storage System (CAES), and green hydrogen (via fuel cells, and fast response hydrogen-fueled gas peaking turbines) will be options for medium to long-term storage. Batteries and SCs are assessed as a prudent option for the immediate net zero targets for 2030–2050.
Centre for Complex Systems
Complex systems is one of the Faculty of Engineering''s research themes, focusing on understanding the complexity of interacting technological, socioeconomic and socioecological systems, and creating models for predicting their behaviour, stability and efficiency.
Centre for Multiscale Energy Systems
Our advanced modelling of complex systems examines both specific technologies and overall energy performance to provide a robust, technically sound, and clear picture of our energy choices today and in the future.
Home
Energy Catalyst is a specialised, multi-disciplinary consulting platform. We work with clients that are navigating complex energy system transformations in Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom and the European Union. Our clients are global leaders in their own right.
6 FAQs about [Complex energy systems Australia]
What is Australia's energy transformation?
The energy transformation is an integrated systems problem. Australia’s energy system is set to undergo a major overhaul in the coming decades. We need to cut carbon emissions and make our system more resilient. This transformation will bring together sectors and fields that haven't historically worked closely together.
What is the centre for complex systems?
For thousands of years they have shared and exchanged knowledges across innumerable generations for the benefit of all. The Centre for Complex Systems brings together researchers from across the University to promote research and education in complex systems.
What is the centre for Multiscale Energy Systems?
Additionally, the Centre for Multiscale Energy Systems is also focused on the analysis of the environmental impact of energy generation from a systems perspective, as well as introducing emerging technologies aimed at reducing this impact.
How many energy schemes are there in Australia?
There are currently three schemes connected to Australia’s energy grid – Wivenhoe Dam, Tumut 3 and Shoalhaven, collectively adding 1.6 GW capacity – though a new golden age for the technology has begun.
Why do we need balancing energy storage technologies in Australia?
Increasing gap between maximum and minimum operational demand in Australia call for urgent need of balancing storage technologies. Fast response hybrid battery-supercapacitor energy storage are deemed prudent solution for the transition period, while PHES and Hydrogen are for long-term storage
What are the new hydro energy projects in Australia?
New projects including Kidston Pumped Hydro (QLD) – the first Pumped Hydro Energy Storage System in 37 years – Borumba Pumped Hydro Energy Project (QLD), Snowy 2.0 (NSW) and Tarraleah (Tas) are currently in the pipeline and will see the number of connected schemes grow along with the total percentage of electricity generated.
