Featured Projects
Clean Energy Supply Chain Diversification Program: Building Resilient Indo-Pacific Solar Panel Reuse and Recycling Networks
The QUAD project will build resilient Indo-Pacific solar supply chains by adapting Second Life Solar's PV testing technology to distinguish panels suitable for reuse from those requiring recycling. Working with RMIT and regional partners, the project will optimise solar testing for local conditions, evaluate performance data and develop scalable business plans. By extending panel life and recovering silicon, silver, copper and aluminium, the initiative will reduce landfill, support circular solar installations and strengthen regional clean-energy resilience.
Grid Enhancing Technologies: Regional Electrification Accelerated by Dynamic Resource Coordination
This project develops and validates a non-wire alternative for transport electrification in regional Australia. In partnership with Essential Energy and the RMIT EV-Grid Integration Living Lab, it will model future regional demand, build cyber-secure algorithms that coordinate EV charging, vehicle-to-grid services and community batteries within existing distribution systems, and validate the solution through laboratory and real-world pilots.
