Griffith is an engineer, entrepreneur and scientist specialising in clean and renewable energy technologies, and is also the founder of Rewiring America and Rewiring Australia. Investing in Tomorrow, which was co-written with Paul Conway, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand’s chief economist, and peer reviewed by Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment’s chief economist Geoff Simmons, proves that climate solutions are cost-effective and that delaying electrification will incur billions of dollars in unnecessary imported fossil fuel purchases and lead to millions of tons of unnecessary carbon emissions.

Griffith will present the findings of the paper, the role of sustainable finance and policy (legislation and regulation) in the transition away from fossil fuels, and the success of the Inflation Reduction Act in the US and the work he is doing to electrify his homeland of Australia.

Following his presentation, he will join a panel discussion with Conway and Simmons. The panel will be facilitated by Lou Aitken, Partner - Sustainability & Climate at Deloitte.
