Hit cooking show MasterChef’s gas sponsorship deal has sparked accusations of greenwashing, and adds to a long tradition of normalising domestic gas consumption.
A new tool boosts the aim of providing a consistent accounting framework for measurement and tracking of the carbon emissions associated with hydrogen production.
It’s still possible for Australia to cut emissions in line with holding climate change to 1.5°C, but only if we act quickly and seize the enormous opportunities offered in fast decarbonisation.
A recent research study sheds light on the challenges of Australia’s hydrogen transition and adoption plans in the face of shifting global dynamics.
Reaching 82% renewable energy share of the market by 2030 is admirable, but we’re underestimating how much electricity we’ll need to generate.
If we put green hydrogen plants next to green iron and steelmaking, we can clean up steelmaking, and boost the hydrogen industry.
If we’re to effectively tackle the critical challenge of climate change, we urgently need a better and more coordinated global transformation to environmentally-friendly economies.
The Andrews government has signalled a major shakeup of Victoria’s energy sector. But is it enough to bring the state’s energy prices down and reduce emissions?
On a new episode of Monash University’s ‘What Happens Next?’ podcast, discover how we can ensure our transition to a decarbonised future is just.
Proven technologies already exist to rapidly reduce methane emissions, and Australia is leading the world in developing new options – but we must act quickly.
Engineer Jeff Walker has been on a relentless search to find new and better ways to measure our planet’s health.
We should welcome all options that enable low-carbon hydrogen to play a role in decarbonising our energy systems, and stop focusing on colour-coding production methods.
To ensure hydrogen meets the goals of sustainable production, life cycle assessment and net energy analyses should be integrated with project planning to inform decision-making.
Unlike, for instance, lawnmowers, you don’t just “plug in” a bus to a regular outlet – the charging equipment is sophisticated, extensive, and expensive.
Electricity should be a main focus, but big improvements are also needed in transport, industry, agriculture and buildings.
Five years after the pivotal Paris Climate Accords, a new report looks beyond the numbers to ask what’s really happening in key countries – including Australia.
Australia has abundant wind and solar resources to provide large quantities of cost-competitive green hydrogen. A new tool can show the way forward.
Will we see driverless cars, personalised public transport and flying taxis in the future? In this episode we ask the experts what the future of travel looks like.
A 2050 net zero goal will provide clarity, ambition and focus. But Scott Morrison must back rhetoric with investment and policy commensurate with the task.
China’s intention to become “carbon neutral” before 2060 has raised eyebrows, but contrary to its reputation as a “climate villain”, its investment in renewable energy is already substantial.
Regardless of the federal government's mixed messages about Australia’s energy future, renewables have a vital part to play.
We're discussing how we can solve some of the challenges of getting renewable energy from solar, wind farms and hydro back into the grid.
Coronavirus and stimulus spending creates a golden opportunity for low-carbon transition.
A water electrolysis breakthrough has huge potential to make hydrogen generation more economically viable.
