How can Sydney Science Park maximise the potential for renewable energy usage? Examine the potential to utilise the waste for energy purposes? Encourage residents to utilise innovative energy saving devices to reduce the energy load?
Large-scale renewable energy use in urban environments is of high importance as a future sustainable energy option in both meeting increasing urban energy demand and reducing emissions. As technology continues to advance, renewable energies will become ever more efficient, user-friendly, cost-effective, accessible and sustainable.
With urban hubs set to decide the future, forward-thinking ‘smart cities’ are looking to re-define their energy mix and distribution systems. What are the smart energy concepts that are emerging to play their part in the cleaner, leaner and more local cities of tomorrow?
Our economy-wide portfolio highlights the many ways we are investing across a diverse range of technologies and projects to support our national goal of net zero emissions by 2050.
Narara Ecovillage has established a smart grid including their own renewable energy generation, as part of their mission to create a sustainable
ecovillage.
New South Wales was once a world leader on climate action, but a new Climate Council report shows it is now far behind, spewing more greenhouse gas pollution into the atmosphere than any other state or territory. The Climate Council report – Ageing and Unprepared: Energy in New South Wales – examines the state’s ongoing dependence on coal and gas power stations and its tardy transition to renewable energy.
The NSW Electricity Strategy is the NSW Government’s plan for a reliable, affordable and sustainable electricity future that supports a growing economy.
Energy from waste is an emerging technology in Australia and involves the thermal treatment of waste or waste-derived materials for the recovery of energy.
