Part of Australian Energy Week 2026
Where transponders, data, and diagnostics are redefining reliability

For 24 years, Machines & HV Assets has been the trusted meeting place for Australia’s high-voltage and rotating machinery community.

Returning to Australian Energy Week in 2026, it connects you to the entire energy value chain, from design and maintenance to the digital transformation of HV operations.

This is the forum for engineers, asset managers, and innovators shaping the future of machine and high-voltage asset performance.

Discover how transponders, sensors, and AI-driven insights are transforming reliability, maintenance, and safety across Australia’s power, industrial, and mining sectors.

Machines don’t fail overnight, they warn us first.

Are you listening?

Join Machines & HV Assets 2026 and take the next step toward truly intelligent reliability.

“So many great presentations! The most useful ones related to how technology is changing the way in which assets are being managed”
(2025 attendee from Ventia)

“Great collaborations and discussions - relationships formed quickly, and therefore 'community' atmosphere of the M&HVA conference was great”
(2025 attendee from Secora)
