SEGRA Talks

In this episode of SEGTALK, host Scott Robinson speaks with Professor Andrew Beer about the energy transition and the opportunities it presents for regional Australia. Drawing on decades of research into regional economic development and structural change, Professor Beer explores how the shift from traditional energy generation to renewable energy could reshape regional economies, create employment opportunities and support long-term economic growth. The conversation highlights how renewable energy infrastructure could distribute investment and jobs across a wider range of regional communities, creating new opportunities for local industries and workforces. Join us for an insightful discussion on navigating economic change and building a more resilient and prosperous future for regional Australia.
