Australia has ahuge potentialfor a renewables industry, thanks to our wide open spaces, windy coasts and sunny skies. So TER also looked at a future scenario, where the national electricity mix is generated with about 10% fossil fuels and 90% renewable energy (solar, wind, hydro, biomass)....
However, with a sustainable approach and mindful thinking, one can know why is using too much electricity bad for the environment and likewise can take steps towards its conservation. With time, by small yet effective planning, countries can reap maximum results but with minimum energy usage. The...
