Western Sydney Manufacturers Forum

2 April 2025 – Penrith Panthers

The NSW Smart Sensing Network in partnership with the NSW Decarbonisation Innovation Hub would you to invite you to the Western Sydney Manufacturers Forum in Penrith on April 2!

The Western Sydney Manufacturers Forum is a FREE event focussing on empowering Western Sydney’s industrial transformation to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.

Anchored in the NSW Government’s Net Zero Industry and Innovation Investment Plan 2022–2024 and aligned with the Commonwealth’s Future Made in Australia priorities, the Forum will explore the current ecosystem and practical solutions for the manufacturing sector to achieve greenhouse gas emission reduction targets, meet future demand, and ensure a strong and resilient industry.

Key topics include:

  • Energy Transition: Supporting the shift to renewable energy and improving energy efficiency in industrial operations to reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions.
  • Skills Development: Building a skilled workforce capable of leveraging advanced manufacturing technologies and implementing decarbonisation strategies.
  • Mandatory Reporting: Preparing industries for the Environmental Protection Authority’s mandatory reporting requirements starting in 2025, with insights into compliance strategies.
  • Data and Sensors: Utilising advanced sensors, IoT, and data analytics to monitor and optimise emissions reduction in real time.

You can attend the morning or afternoon sessions, or stay for the whole day (it’s free!) – we’d love to have you.

In the morning, you’ll get the chance to learn about the current state of play in NSW and Australia on a broad scale as we work towards net zero by 2050, including opportunities and challenges for industry at large and how to address skills gaps.

Afternoon session:

After lunch, we’ll take the context from the morning session and apply it practically, with sessions on digitasation, carbon accounting, case studies, and how you can get started on your company’s net zero journey sooner.
