Option B Energy storage is identified as the key element in modem energy supply chain and electric vehicles are attracting widespread attention on energy storage devices. Lithium-ion batteries (LIB) have gained increased importance due to this higher demand in energy storage. In Australia, with 100% Lithium-ion batteries are being imported from overseas, an opportunity exists to build LIB manufacturing plant subject to the continued favourable market condition. Government is seeking to establish Lithium-ion battery manufacturing facility in Australia and encouraging local manufacturing companies to participate in the project. Having designed and developed a prototype battery, you understand that there is a potential to enter this project. Assume you are mounting a case to your boss as to why your organisation should participate in the development of a new LIB manufacturing plant such that you have a chance of winning a long-term contract. Your boss expects your submission to cover the same aspects as a robust business case. Discuss what the business case would specifically cover, and which areas of the business case would require particular attention if the submission was to enhance its potential of gaining funds.

Complex project management (20%) Pumped hydroelectric storage will be important in Victoria. You are working for the Victorian government to introduce a program for 50 pumped hydroelectric storages. Many sites for new Hydroelectric Storage will be in National Parks and affected by the Native Title Act 1993. Write a project planning brief that addresses, systems engineering, risk and cross-cultural aspects.
