Electrification – Powering Business Operations with Clean Electricity

Thursday 12th February 2026


During this session presented by Business Foundations, business owners and operators will examine technology swaps such as: Gas boilers ➜ electric heat-pumps Diesel forklifts ➜ battery units; ICE fleet vehicles ➜ EVs LPG process heat ➜electric infrared/induction

The session will also cover load-profile impacts, switchboard capacity checks and WA’s fast-growing EV-charging backbone and rooftop-solar uptake. The Business Foundations team will outline where electrification is technically and financially viable, infrastructure upgrades (cabling, demand management, on-site storage), lifetime cost and maintenance savings of electric options, and see how pairing electrification with renewables slashes Scope 1 emissions. A

bout the presenter: Business Foundations help business owners adopt renewable energy, cut waste, embrace the circular economy and strengthen climate resilience. This is complemented by their work on behalf of governments, corporations and community bodies to drive low-carbon supply-chain management, feasibility studies for sustainable projects, and strategic planning aligned with net-zero and ESG objectives.

This workshop is organised by Switch Your Thinking with support from Energy Policy WA in the Department of Energy and Economic Diversification.
