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
Storm Clouds for QLD’s Clean Energy Leadership as LNP Assumes Power
The QLD state election last week saw the David Crisafulli-led LNP form a majority government. The sunshine state is now at serious risk of being locked into high-emission fossil fuels to power the state, derailing the crowding-in of tens of billions of renewable energy and green industry capital unlocked by the critical new transmission and grid firming investments made under the previous government.

CEF’s news report shows that a green capital tsunami of investments from China into cleantech around the world is speeding decarbonisation, but Australia, with its opaque foreign investment regime, is missing out, as investment hit a multidecade low last year, forgoing its massive opportunity to co-invest with China in clean energy-powered onshore value-adding, including green iron.

AEMO Electricity Statement of Opportunities
Tim Buckley analyses the latest AEMO ESOO, which shows no reliability gap out to 2034 – if all planned replacement capacity projects are delivered on time. Time for state governments to accelerate approvals and strategic public interest investment into firmed renewables in line with the federal 82% renewables by 2030 target, and lock in low-cost, clean reliable supply to ameliorate the climate, energy and cost of living crises.
