Project Jupiter webinar: Project Jupiter WA’s path to virtual power plants at scale

Описание: In September 2025 ARENA hosted an industry webinar introducing Project Jupiter, Western Australia’s major DER integration initiative, delivered in partnership by Western Power, Synergy, the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), and Energy Policy WA, with support from ARENA.

Now six months into delivery, Project Jupiter is already generating valuable insights from its initiation phase, laying the groundwork to scale customer energy participation through virtual power plants (VPPs) and addressing the technical, market and regulatory changes needed to support this transition.

The ‘Project Jupiter: WA’s path to virtual power plants at scale – lessons from project initiation’ webinar highlighted key takeaways from the project’s first 2 milestone reports:

Vision and Impact Pathway Report: a shared, stakeholder-informed vision for DER integration, including a framework to measure impact and track progress toward scale.

The National Alignment Report: identifying how Project Jupiter complements national Consumer Energy Resource (CER) initiatives and where alignment with the NEM presents opportunities for collaboration.

This session featured speakers from the Project Jupiter team who presented key insights and responded to audience questions.
