QUEENSLAND - ZERO EMISSIONS TARGET

Queensland’s electricity grid will need to double in size to meet the growing need for zero emissions energy, according to the head of the state government’s leading clean energy utility.

Speaking at the online Queensland Smart Energy Summit on Tuesday, CleanCo chief executive Maia Schweitzer said the state has an ’embarrassment of riches’ that would allow it to take advantage of global commitments to reach zero net emissions.

“We see that on a global context, really gargantuan commitments that are being made by governments around the world, including the US government, the EU, countries in Asia,” Schweitzer said.

“If you think about that global context, Queensland really has a pretty unique, almost embarrassment of riches to make us successful in that global context.” - link
