S2 E16: TURNING THE LIGHTS ON - A HISTORY OF EPT, MIGRATION AND MODERNISING AUSTRALIA WITH MATTHEW QUOMI In this episode we stop a moment to think about how we are so connected to #electricity . We’re going to honour the courageous and #skillful people who climbed heights without fear to assemble and construct those tall steel structures across our #Australian landscape. We’re going to step back in time to 1951 when the Australian branch of an #Italian company set up in Australia to #connect our vast, remote country to a reliable electricity source which enables a future of #possibility and #prosperity. Electric Power Transmission Pty Ltd or EPT - was that company. EPT holds an important chapter in Australia’s story. The story of migrants making their way in a new land. The story of connecting Australia across a remarkable and unforgiving landscape. The story of powering Australia into prosperity – signalling the start of industry, new jobs and new economic opportunities. EPT turned on the #lights for Australia, so it’s only fair that we should shine a little light on it today. To help tell this story, I’m joined by Matthew Quomi around the warm table. Matthew’s father, like mine, worked for EPT and this paternal #legacy inspired Matthew, an #architect and passionate #historian, to research and write a book about EPT and its communities. Matthew has spent the last few years sharing warm tables across Australia piecing together the history of EPT with the pioneers of Australia’s energy legacy – migrant men now aged in their 70s, 80s and 90s.

✍ #Norway, the #UnitedKingdom, #Belgium, #Denmark, and the #Netherlands have signed a new agreement so that every autonomous #ship can operate safely within each country's national requirements and frameworks. 🛥 These countries will exchange knowledge and #information about national #activities in line with the '#Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships' philosophy. Thus, requirements for operating in the North Sea basin will be clarified while they wait for #international #regulations. 👊 The International Maritime Organization and the European Union helped to design this agreement. 👉 Read full details here: https://lnkd.in/dXAhUtXS

"In the 1870s, Australia was unofficially ranked as the world’s most productive economy, trading off its capability to mine coal and iron ore and farm wool, as well as patenting astonishing inventions like the combine harvester, the electric drill, differential gears, the refrigerator, the black box flight recorder found in all commercial aircraft, and since then, Google Maps, Wi-Fi technology, ultrasound scanners, electronic pacemakers, and cochlear implants." The product of economic restructuring in the '90s was? a SERVICE economy! (and manufacturing was emasculated) Who made those decisions? and why? Remember the chest-beating - 29 years of economic growth! - then COVID. We heard the words National Sovereignty. What is that? Look at us NOW!! A generous interpretation - Mediocre and slipping backwards - as one eminent Australian said in response to the recently released Intergenerational Report "This will be the first generation in our history to leave the next generation in a worse position." - WOW.! What an achievement! #innovation #innovationinaustralia # manufacturing # moonshots https://lnkd.in/f-i-Jgw

Research vessels are special ships that help us better understand our planet by conducting critical research at sea. Some of the most common types are seismic vessels, hydrographic vessels, and oceanographic vessels. The remote locations in which these vessels operate make logistical support particularly challenging. That’s why they rely on Horizon to support them as they continue their scientific missions uninterrupted. Read more about the types of vessels we keep shipshape and on-schedule!

SHIPPING ∙ Today, Genoa and London co-hosted a roundtable on “The Future of Shipping: Challenges, Opportunities and Technologies”. The event is in partnership with the UK government, St George’s Club and the Ambassadors of Genova in the World to honour the historical ties and nurture dialogue between the two cities. The discussions covered the major challenges faced by the shipping industry: digital transformation and emerging technologies; design and naval architecture; decarbonisation in the maritime sector; the effectiveness of communication in the industry; and the legal, insurance and financial aspects. Our Enrico Vergani, leader of the Shipping, Transport & Logistics Focus Team, talked about the geopolitical issues and the assessment of related risks for ships, goods and travelling workers; the impact of sanctions in the industry and the “dark fleet” phenomenon; the prevalence of the common law in the shipping sector; and the role of insurers. The roundtable ended with a discussion between the mayors of the two cities about the key areas for collaboration, possible joint actions to overcome the challenges faced by the maritime industry, and ways to strengthen their relationship. #futureshipping
