Join us, share your story, and help power the future at APEX 2025!
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 2025 is being held on Tuesday 11th November and will take place at Connetics, 11 Islington Avenue, Christchurch.
APEX is a conference for graduate engineers with up to 5 years experience, 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.
THE THEME: Engineering Tomorrow’s Energy Future
At this year’s APEX Summit, we are looking forward to listening to your presentations on engineering projects, issues, and opportunities from transitioning to decarbonization through electrification and changing the future energy mix.
Possible topics are shown below to help in your consideration—noting that it is not an exclusive list so please offer other presentations if you wish.
Topics could include:
- Consumer/Community engagement in energy transition
- Emerging technologies and flexibility
- Sustainability and environmental excellence
- System Integration, and Big Data impacts
- Asset engineering – management, optimisation, and integration
- Enabling distributed energy resources (DER)
- Asset management, climate change, resilience, and future asset planning
- Artificial intelligence, automation, digitisation, and communication
Call for Abstracts
We are now seeking presentation abstracts from graduate engineers with up to five years’ experience in the electricity supply industry. Any engineering disciplines can be covered, the more diverse the better!
We only ask you to think about what your presentation could bring to the Summit’s theme ‘Engineering Tomorrow’s Energy Future’. Students involved in projects with industry companies are also welcome to submit an abstract.
Abstract submissions should be made by email to EEA at admin@eea.co.nz by no later than Friday 3rd October 2025.
