Resilience at Scale: Transforming the Essential Energy Network through Composite Pole Transition
Online | 8 September | 1pm
This presentation will focus on how, by transitioning to composite poles, Essential Energy is building a stronger, more resilient network that reduces outages, shortens restoration times, and delivers safer, more reliable electricity for the customers and communities we serve, when they need it most.
Managing 1.4 million poles and replacing more than 9,000 end-of-life assets each year, Essential Energy is future-proofing one of Australia’s largest distribution networks.
An ageing timber pole fleet, constrained supply and escalating climate risk drove a decisive transition to composite poles. With one in five poles in bushfire-prone areas, composite materials strengthen resilience, improve survivability, reduce outages and accelerate restoration, thereby safeguarding customer outcomes and network reliability.
Closing the Gaps: A Decade of Measurable Asset Management Improvement at EnergyAustralia
Online | 15 September | 1pm AEST
This presentation will focus on EnergyAustralia’s Asset Management System maturity journey from 2016 to 2025.
In 2016, EnergyAustralia identified significant deficiencies in its Asset Management System through its first fleet wide Asset Management Review. In 2025, a comprehensive AS/ISO 55001-aligned Asset Management Maturity Assessment demonstrated measurable uplift: 4 major gaps fully closed, 10 materially progressed, and only 1 legacy gap outstanding.
In the time between the two assessments, a sustained program of design, implementation, and optimisation of Asset Management artifacts, processes and procedures have been implemented. The implementation of the mature Asset Management System has required consistent effort, heavy stakeholder engagement, regular leadership alignment and involvement, and a lot of passion and enthusiasm from the team.
Reliability and Maintenance Fundamentals
Online | 12 September | 12pm AEST
This introductory session explores the relationship between reliability and maintenance, what good reliability foundations look like, and why these fundamentals are essential for long-term asset performance. The webinar will demonstrate how robust reliability practices create the platform required for successful predictive maintenance initiatives and future AI/ML implementation.
