Wind Energy

We are playing an essential role in researching and developing technologies to achieve the objective of near zero emissions from the use of energy worldwide.

The Energy Transformed Flagship is developing clean affordable energy and transport technologies for a sustainable future - the first steps towards a hydrogen economy.

Development of the first hybrid battery suitable for storing electricity from renewable energy sources such as solar and wind is now a step closer.

Could Australia shift direction from being an ‘energy superpower’ dependent on non-renewable resources such as coal, natural gas and uranium, to a sustainable energy leader with a portfolio of renewable and more efficient traditional energy sources, coupled with smarter demand management? 

The conference is aimed at gathering together the experts in Asia-Pacific and Australasia who are contributing to the impact of embedded generation, energy efficiency and small scale Renewables from both a technology and policy viewpoint.

The Energy Transformed Flagship's research will accelerate the development and uptake of low emission distributed energy systems in Australia’s energy industry.

CSIRO research is improving our understanding of how the interactions between land and atmosphere can impact on climate, water resources, environmental health and productivity.

We use ESM to determine the impact of potential future events, policies and technology breakthroughs on the uptake of new technologies in electricity generation and road transport.

Building on the success of CSIRO’s atmospheric modelling technology, Windlab Systems was formed in 2003 and now operates as a private company. The company continues to prosper as concern about climate change has prompted growth in renewable energies.

This video raises issues surrounding low emission distributed generation systems and how they will challenge our ideas about energy supply and where we generate power. (0:30)

What will Australia’s energy needs be in 2050? What challenges will we be facing? What can we do now? Members of the Energy Futures Forum discuss their experience in creating The heat is on report in this six-minute podcast.
