The Electricity Generation industry is transitioning from a model of mostly coal fired steam turbine generation to a mix of thermal (coal), gas (natural, liquefied petroleum and hydrogen), renewable (solar), and large-scale wind generation and power storage. This has led to a change in skills needs and greater workforce mobility within the industry.
The ESI Generation Industry Reference Committee (IRC) proposed a project to update seven qualifications to address changes in the generation industry, including the move to renewable energy power generation, increasing automation of power generation control systems and data analytics.
The expected submission of the Case for Endorsement will be submitted to the Australian Industry and Skills Committee (AISC) by 31 July 2020.
