This is what we have been modelling for years (and my PhD topic) - integrated system planning for electricity grid, h2, EV, green steel manufacturing, HVDC export, and now with mining. We show if designed well, there are great synergies and co-benefits with shared RE facilities.
"The 1.5-degree limit is only possible if we ultimately stop burning all fossil
fuels.
Not reduce.
Not abate.
Phaseout."

You too, AUS !!
Minister Bowen has appointed me to lead Australia’s Carbon Leakage Review. The review will assess carbon leakage risks and possible policy options, among them the feasibility of a CBAM for Australia. There'll be extensive consultations with stakeholders.

Congratulations to @GeoscienceAus and @MonashUni for winning the @eurekaprizes Prize for their Economic Fairways Mapper team.
This work is a game-changer for green steel in Australia.
Watch: https://t.co/hfA4hjhHgx
Great to see the value and importance of this collaborative project between @GeoscienceAus and @monashengineers recognised with selection as a @eurekaprizes finalist. Looking forward to the Award Ceremony in August!
Congratulations to our Economic Fairways Mapper team, a collaboration between experts from Geoscience Australia and @MonashUni, on being selected as a finalist for the 2023 @EurekaPrizes for Innovative Research in Sustainability! Press ▶️ for more on the Economic Fairways mapper!
Economic Fairways Mapper is a world-first platform to inform decisions about locating resources projects. Developed by a team led by Dr Stuart Walsh of @MonashCivil and Dr Marcus Haynes of @GeoscienceAus, it's a #EurekaPrizes finalist for Innovative Research in Sustainability.

This puts urgency of #climate#change#mitigation into perspective. #Mitigation first. Then #adaptation. Have 6 year of #carbonBudget at current emission levels. So must focus almost entirely on energy transition and reforestation. Iceland Antarctic ice slide in at 1.5 degrees.
