Demand for vehicles with low greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions has led automakers to develop various types of electric vehicles, which have low or no tailpipe emissions. The use of these cars in countries like Australia, where electricity generation is GHG intensive, results in relatively high emissi...
Australian energy ministers are to decide next week on including environmental considerations such as greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets into electricity network and generation planning. This aims to accelerate the transition to a power system supplied by renewable energy sources and create ...
