We've all been experiencing energy bill shock – and seeing countless headlines about it – as the cost-of-living crisis worsens.

Meanwhile, the way households use power is undergoing a radical transformation, as Australia's 100-year-old energy infrastructure grapples with renewables, electric vehicles and home batteries.
