It is an exciting time to be working in the industry!
Enabling greater electrification is critical to Aotearoa New Zealand achieving net-zero carbon emissions and this puts our young engineering community front and centre of the road to decarbonisation.
This years Annual Power Engineering Exchange [APEX] Summit 2024 is being held on Tuesday 26th November and will take place at Black and Gold, 4 Taranaki Street, Wellington.
APEX is a conference for graduate engineers, of any discipline, in the power engineering industry and a great opportunity to share experiences while learning from the presentations of others. Networking at events such as the APEX summit is an excellent way to start relationships and gain exposure to the industry.
APEX is now also a must-attend for students willing to meet and get useful advice from graduates, or simply to hear about some fantastic projects and understand the electricity industry.
