ARENA’s ReWired podcast is back for a new season spotlighting the Australians turning big clean energy ideas into real-world impact.

In this episode, host Danny Kennedy speaks with special guests Leon Chanter, General Manager of Distributed Energy Resources at ARENA.

Together, they discuss distributed energy resources (DER) and consumer energy resources (CER), and how they work together to create a stronger energy network for all Australians.

You'll also hear about a variety of ARENA-funded projects from across Australia that are working to create a more resilient and efficient power grid all the way from the west coast to the east coast.
