Symposium chair, CSIRO scientist Dr Geoff James, said the decision to form the Working Group was a major outcome of the three-day specialist conference on sustainable electricity.

"This think-tank of 22 leading academic and industry specialists from China and Australia will work together to develop better ways to utilise and distribute electricity," Dr James said.

"Recognising the strong trade links and shared energy challenges which face our two nations, the Working Group will draw on the expertise of both countries to continue the work begun at this forum towards achieving sustainable electricity supply."

The Working Party membership is drawn from Australian industry and key Australian and Chinese universities, including:

+ University of Queensland

+ RMIT University

+ University of New South Wales

+ Curtin University

+ Tsinghua University

+ Hong Kong Polytechnic University

+ State Power Economic Research Institute of China
