Journey to zero emissions electricity: BAU could deliver more than NEG
First of three-part series examining the evolution of Australia’s electricity system to 2050, and the role of policy-makers along the way.
Australia’s energy sector must be the source of the bulk of emissions reductions achieved through to 2030 if we are to reach our national target.
The growing role of renewables makes battery storage the best option for grid support and peak power supply. Australia, more than most, stands to benefit.

Falling electricity demand: Has it changed the game on emissions?
Energetics’ re-forecast of Australian emissions shows the impact of falling electricity consumption. But that doesn't mean we can relax the 2020 target.
Energy efficiency is one of our most effective climate measures, reducing emissions and costs. The GEMS Bill 2012 will help the government realise this.
