What NETRA Does
NETRA’s work runs through five connected activities. Together they turn isolated breakthroughs into deployed technology that shapes the global energy transition.
Convene
Bringing the field together through the Earth Day Global Energy Transition Summit, webinars, and technology tours that foster knowledge exchange.
Councils
Nine industry councils where members collaborate on specific challenges. 28+ documented meetings advancing solutions across the sector.
Policy & Standards
Translating industry consensus into regulatory clarity through submissions and direct government engagement on transformative technologies.
Capacity Building
Empowering the workforce through practitioner-led masterclasses and knowledge resources for a sector scaling rapidly.
Partnerships
Building strategic associations across five geographies with councils and institutions driving the net-zero transition forward.
Policy & Government Engagement
NETRA channels its members’ technical expertise directly into the policy process. Through its industry councils, the association prepares detailed submissions on the regulations and standards that determine whether a technology can be deployed at scale.
The strategy is direct engagement with government bodies on the rules shaping the transition. The aim is practical: fragmented industry input creates policy paralysis; a coordinated industry voice produces the clarity and certainty that markets need to scale.
Industry-Led Policy Clarity
Building the Workforce of Tomorrow
Capacity Building
A sector scaling this fast needs skilled people who can build it. NETRA runs practitioner-led masterclasses and shares knowledge resources across its council themes, ensuring the workforce is equipped for rapid growth.
Our battery energy storage masterclass brought working practitioners together on the economics and engineering of deployment — a proven model we are now extending across advanced batteries, grids, manufacturing, finance, and policy domains.
