The role of gas in South Australia
This project explored the role of natural gas in meeting the state’s renewable energy, security, emissions and energy pricing goals.
Research outcomes can help define a least cost technical pathway towards 100 per cent renewable electricity and a hydrogen industry, which supports an eventual zero net emissions in South Australia, consistent with South Australia’s Climate Change Strategy 2015-2050 – Towards a Low Carbon Economy.
