Future Australia will be powered by high-tech, low- cost, low-emission energy sources. The global shift from fossil fuel generation to renewable energy sources is rapidly underway. Australians are leading the way, with the highest adoption of rooftop solar in the world - almost eight times the worldwide average capacity per capita.10
Thanks to abundant natural energy resources such as solar and wind, all Australians can benefit from this clean energy transition. New and changing approaches to electricity and gas infrastructure can improve reliability, but the shift to intermittent generation sources also presents a transitional challenge that needs to be managed.
The benefits will extend to Small Towns, Rural Communities and Remote Areas. They will be equipped with low-emission, standalone power systems that reduce costs and emissions and improve reliability.
