Machines & HV Assets 2026
Where transponders, data, and diagnostics are redefining reliability
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.
