The growth in energy solutions and battery technology has been substantial with installations expected to triple over the next 12 months.

The illegally imported goods contained a gas which is 1430 times as potent in the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.

A key challenge is making equipment more energy efficient while developing the use of renewable energy.

Phase two of the Kennedy project, which is a $2 billion 1200MW solar and wind farm, will commence in 2019.

The aim of the study is to develop a nationwide map of potential sites for establishing off-river pumped hydro storage.

When hydrogen burns, it produces only water vapour and no carbon dioxide.

With the country enduring one of its hottest summers on record, reliance on the grid has been at an all-time high.

The energy farms will produce 80 per cent of power usage at each site in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

Industry responses must be submitted by July 31, 2017.

Significant growth is due to rising impetus on renewable energy generation such as solar power and increased demand for thermal energy storage systems in HVAC.

Work on the renewable energy powered data centre hub will begin this year, with two further sites planned for 2018.

This innovative, first of its kind project, will lower power bills and reduce emissions in South Australia.

The new homes will be built to an average 7-Star National Housing Energy Rating System (NatHERS) rating.

Only the solar PV boosted model met all GEMS requirements.

The farm is expected to reach completion in January 2018.

CSIRO's partnership with Chinese company Thermal Focus takes Australia's clean energy technology to a global stage.
