AEMO at the Heart of Energy


AEMO is Australia’s independent energy system and market operator and system planner. AEMO’s purpose is to ensure safe, reliable and affordable energy today, and enable the energy transition for the benefit of all Australians.

With more than half the National Electricity Market now supplied by DER in some periods, Australia is leading the world in integration of distributed PV, and our team’s goal is to make sure the necessary measures are in place to be able to securely, safely and efficiently operate the power system with up to 100% of energy supplied by renewable distributed resources in the next few years.
