The launch of WA’s GreenTech Hub marked an important moment in Western Australia’s innovation journey, bringing together government, industry, academia and community voices to advance green entrepreneurship. 

Zenith Energy was proud to participate in the event, with Dominic Da Cruz, Executive ESG & Stakeholder Engagement, who was one of three VIP speakers including the Hon. Stephen Dawson, Minister for Science and Innovation, and Professor Harlene Hayne, Vice Chancellor of Curtin University who spoke on the key role the GreenTech Hub will play in WA’s ability to meaningfully contribute to the Global Energy Transition.   

For Zenith, the Hub provides an opportunity to engage directly in the innovation process, from validating the credibility of emerging technologies and their proponents, to helping shape funding pathways and supporting the policy settings needed for implementation. Our involvement will vary, from sitting on applicant assessment panels to supporting selected technologies as they progress towards commercial demonstration in one of our market leading power systems. 

In the first year, Zenith’s goal is to identify a technology that can be commercially demonstrated in the Goldfields and then be replicated and scaled across our portfolio before 2035. Success will be measured not just by participation, but by tangible outcomes that accelerate decarbonisation and strengthen WA’s innovation ecosystem. 

The launch also highlighted what lies ahead. The Long Game Challenge, the Hub’s first innovation challenge, will focus on scalable, long-duration 10+ hours and seasonal energy storage solutions with applications in both remote and grid-connected settings. For Zenith, this represents a pathway to bring innovation into operation and showcase how new technologies can integrate into real-world hybrid power systems.
