A Q&A inviting attendees to suggest additional actions/events/services that EA WA Division can provide to further EA’s national sustainability agenda.
If we replaced all the fossil fuelled power stations of the Australian National Electricity Market by commercially available renewable energy systems, how reliable would the renewable electricity supply system be? What would be the respective costs of the 100% renewable energy system, an efficient fossil fuelled system and fossil fuelled systems with hypothetical carbon capture and storage and under what conditions would 100% renewable energy systems break-even with the various fossil fuelled systems? What are the greenhouse gas emissions from each scenario?
A great meeting can save time, money and sanity. Discuss why we run meetings, what you can do to get the most our of your time, and why it's important to understand your organisation's culture when it comes to getting people together.
