According to a recent study by the University of New South Wales, Australia is adding green energy to its grid at less than half the rate needed to maintain stability.
The ACT (Australian Capital Territory) government is planning to build infrastructure to charge its electric bus fleet
The cost of producing coal for US consumption has become "pointlessly expensive" due to increased competition from renewable energy sources and declining demand for coal.
MPower Completes Faraday Solar Energy Project Acquisition
A new solar project called Faraday has been announced in Australia. The project will use advanced solar technology to generate clean energy and reduce the country's reliance on fossil fuels. The project is expected to have a significant impact on the Australian energy market and help the country transition to a low-carbon economy. The details of the project, including its size and location, have not yet been disclosed.
Infrastructure to charge Canberra’s electric bus fleet
The ACT (Australian Capital Territory) government is planning to build infrastructure to charge its electric bus fleet. The charging stations will be installed at depots and other locations to support the use of electric buses and reduce emissions from public transportation. The plan is part of the government's efforts to transition to a low-carbon economy and reduce its impact on the environment.
Coal in the U.S. Is Pointlessly Expensive
The cost of producing coal has become "pointlessly expensive" due to increased competition from renewable energy sources and declining demand for coal. The financial challenges faced by coal companies suggests that the U.S. should focus on transitioning to cleaner, more sustainable energy sources instead.
Australia and Netherlands sign milestone renewable hydrogen agreement
Australia and the Netherlands have signed a landmark agreement to promote the use of renewable hydrogen. The agreement aims to support the development of hydrogen as a clean energy source and promote international cooperation on renewable energy projects. The two countries will work together to explore opportunities for the production and use of renewable hydrogen in various industries, including transportation and energy. This agreement is a significant step towards a more sustainable energy future.
Australia adding green energy at less than half the required rate to keep grid stable: UNSW
According to a recent study by the University of New South Wales, Australia is adding green energy to its grid at less than half the rate needed to maintain stability. The study finds that the country's current pace of renewable energy development is not sufficient to replace retiring coal-fired power plants and maintain a stable energy supply. The authors of the study urge the government to increase investment in renewable energy and implement policies to support the transition to a low-carbon energy system.
Forecasters warn of ‘big storm and rain event’ set to hit
