See how storytelling, not statistics, can inspire climate action by highlighting resilience and innovation across the Indo-Pacific on a new episode of “What Happens Next?”
If a future Coalition government was to bring nuclear into the mix, energy costs for residential and, especially, industrial customers would likely increase.
Cost-of-living increases, inflation, and energy prices affect everyone. And that matters even more when we’re amid a significant generational shift in voting patterns.
Any incentives for energy upgrades need to consider past experience to maximise uptake, prevent unintended consequences, and reduce the likelihood that such schemes will further entrench disadvantage.
As climate change makes smog and bushfires more common, people will die from air pollution at increasingly high rates – especially in densely-populated cities.
The event has prompted questions about the reliability of the state’s electricity grid. But it’s important to note these extreme winds would have seriously disrupted any power system.
A new tool boosts the aim of providing a consistent accounting framework for measurement and tracking of the carbon emissions associated with hydrogen production.
From natural seawalls to mangroves, countries are starting to combat climate change with nature-based solutions. COP28 might drive more of these efforts.
A new report has found that electrifying the residential sector will result in cutting household energy costs, provide health benefits, and drive job creation.
Despite existing frameworks such as the UN Guiding Principles, more precise guidance on implementing standards to combat modern slavery are needed.
If we put green hydrogen plants next to green iron and steelmaking, we can clean up steelmaking, and boost the hydrogen industry.
The budget’s back in surplus after 15 years, briefly, and there are measures to ease cost-of-living pressures, but can it tame inflation?
A four-year study of households has shown how the increasing focus on our homes as sites of work, rest and play can increase energy use despite soaring prices.
After a decade of climate wars, Australia is suddenly united, with state, territory and federal governments aiming for net zero by 2050 for the first time.
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.
On a new episode of Monash University’s ‘What Happens Next?’ podcast, we examine whether mining and sustainability can go hand-in-hand as we transition to a decarbonised future,
The first Labor budget in nine years, delivered against a grim economic backdrop, contains few surprises as it charts Australia's way through uncertain times and high-cost hazards.
Australia’s enormous renewable energy resources could be the perfect match to meet the relative dearth of renewable energy and zero-carbon power fuels in the boreal winter.
Although the clock’s running out, Australia has no agreed policymaking framework for our unique renewable energy transition issues, and little in the way of budget support.
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.
It’s hard to play cricket in sweltering conditions or amid bushfire smoke. Is it time for Cricket Australia to cut ties with fossil fuel sponsors?
Seal it up? Open it up? Air quality is a growing concern for Australian households, and the gap between energy advice and health advice leaves many people confused.
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.
To supercharge the climate fight, we need to mitigate the environmental and financial impact of producing lithium-ion technology, and develop lower-carbon batteries.
