[Drafting note: The Applicant should refer to the Knowledge Sharing Plan Guidance document provided on the application page of the ARENA website for
further information on how to populate the Knowledge Sharing Plan template.
This Knowledge Sharing Plan template is indicative of the requirements that ARENA would expect in the Knowledge Sharing Plan that is submitted by
Applicants. Applicants are encouraged to adapt the provided Knowledge Sharing Plan template as relevant to the proposed Project noting not all
deliverables or data fields may be relevant to your Project. The Applicant should refer to the HyGATE Initiative Funding Announcement for further

The Applicant may like to include additional Knowledge Sharing deliverables or reports that include information that is confidential in nature for ARENA use
only, which should be clearly specified as ‘Recipient Confidential Information.]
1.1 Knowledge sharing context
Under the ARENA Act, ARENA’s mandate is to promote the sharing of information and knowledge about renewable energy technologies, with the objective
of accelerating the development and growth of Australia’s renewable energy sector.
1.2 Knowledge sharing objectives
[Drafting Note: Briefly describe the main concepts, questions or issues that the project is aiming to answer or resolve in the context of technology
commercialisation.]
1.3 Knowledge sharing stakeholders/target audiences
[Drafting Note: Briefly describe the main groups of stakeholders or target audiences that are potentially interested in the KS Objectives listed above, and
the outcome of the project in general.]
1.4 Knowledge Sharing Deliverables
[Drafting note: The table under item (a) applies where the Project relates to a study, and the table under item (b) applies where the Project relates to
demonstration and deployment. ARENA will assist the Recipient in identifying which table applies to the Project.]
ARENA may make requests from Projects (and portfolios of Projects) for particular topics to be covered either through lessons learnt reports (where
applicable) or ad hoc reports, as required. Where ARENA has not made a specific request, topics are to be relevant and/or topical and have an appreciation
for the key audiences. For the avoidance of doubt, business development and marketing material is not considered to be Knowledge Sharing Deliverables.
