Powering Fairness: Evidence for an Inclusive and JUST Energy Transition

Join ACOLA and leading experts as we explore the findings of two significant reports that examine the human dimensions of the transition

Dec just transition

A fair energy transition for all Australians begins with evidence.

Australia’s transition to renewable energy is reshaping communities, economies and everyday life. Yet the impacts—and benefits—are not felt equally.

Join ACOLA and leading experts as we explore the findings of two significant reports that examine the human dimensions of the transition:


Vulnerability and Australia’s Energy Transition — who is most at risk, why vulnerability emerges, and what support communities need


JUST Energy Metrics — how fairness can be measured through clear, consistent justice-based metrics

Be the first to hear the findings from lead authors Professor Sara Bice and Associate Professor Madeline Taylor, followed by a panel discussion with:
• Emeritus Professor Ken Baldwin FTSE
• Professor Fran Baum AO FAHMS FASSA
• John Connor, Net Zero Economy Authority

This event will explore:
• who is most vulnerable in the transition, and why
• how justice can be measured
• where Australia’s most urgent research priorities and gaps lie, and
• what policy is needed to support a transition that is transparent, inclusive and evidence-based

This webinar will offer practical frameworks, policy insights and tools to support a fair, inclusive transition to net zero and includes a live Q&A where attendees can engage with report authors and panellists on the findings, implications and policy opportunities.
