PRESENTATION | ANU Solar Oration – Solar step change
Tim Buckley gives the prestigious ANU Solar Oration, detailing how solar has become the dominant source of net new electricity capacity installed globally with China leading a global step change in cleantech manufacturing capacity. Solar continues to be deflationary, driving deployment – and disruptive in combination with batteries and EVs. Tim also looks at the implications for Australian energy transition and the policy frameworks we need to speed decarbonisation. The video of the oration is available here: https://iceds.anu.edu.au/news-events/events/anu-solar-oration-2024-solar-step-change Read more
