Wise words on wind energy

June 22, 2016
Izzie Pope took the stage after the premier, the minister, the deputy mayor and the chief operating officer. No disrespect to the heavy hitters, but it was the Year 12 student who delivered a beautifully considered speech to the hundreds in attendance at the Ararat Wind Farm Bring on the Blades celebration. A sound bite: “When the 46th anniversary of Earth Day was celebrated globally this year, Generation Z looked on in mild confusion, because we don’t need a special day for considering our environmental impact … every day is a day for sustainable living.”

Tomas Kellner
June 13, 2016
If you want to see the future of electricity, grab an espresso and head to Northern Italy. There, just outside the industrial city of Turin, the combination of renewable energy, traditional generation and a high-voltage cable from France has created more power supply than the region can absorb. So much so, in fact, the glut took at least one decades-old power plant out of commission in 2013.
