Due to the NSW Government changing its energy policy in late November, some projects were forced to withdraw their presentations from the conference, postponing the online event and moving it to February 18.
Because of the changes, replacement projects were found for the conference, which now features eight instead of the initial six.
For the first time, $12 billion worth of projects from north to south NSW will come together to present their projects to the state's resource and construction supply chain in one place.
Clean TeQ's Sunrise Project at Fifield and the Inland Rail are still among those on the list to present their procurement and work opportunities online at the conference, with the Snowy Hydro 2.0 project newly added, which has already involved the work of Parkes truck trailer manufacturer Midland Industries.
Presented by Resource Industry Media and Job Skills Network, the Connecting Industry Conference is an online event designed to assist all tiers of the resource and construction supply chain from SME's through to large civil construction and engineering companies on the latest project and procurement information.
It will be held on Thursday, February 18 from 9am to 1.30pm, facilitated via live video streaming allowing attendees to network, connect and have private face-to-face meetings with presenting projects, speakers, delegates, and sponsors.

"The growth within NSW's resources and construction sector highlights the need for an event linking the state's major industries with our highly skilled supply chain," Resource Industry Media managing director Kieran Moran said.
Based solely on procurement opportunities, the Connecting Industry Conference NSW, features some of the largest resource and construction projects in the state.
The projects presenting are:
- Australian Rail Track Corporation: Inland Rail.
- Carpentaria Resources: Hawsons Iron.
- Clean TeQ: Sunrise Battery Materials.
- Halo Renewable Energy: Dumaresq Solar Farm.
- CWP Renewables: Uungula Wind Farm.
- Santos: Narrabri Gas Project.
- Res Australia: Avonlie Solar Farm.
- Snowy Hydro Ltd: Snowy Hydro 2.0.
Proponents of the Sunrise Project, Clean TeQ Chief Executive Officer Sam Riggall said the conference is an ideal opportunity for Clean TeQ to engage early in the Project lifecycle with businesses in the procurement space.
"Sharing information on the Sunrise Battery Materials Project with those in the supply chain will provide suppliers valuable insight into what will be just around the corner once project funding is secured," Mr Riggall said.
