The Governor and Professor Nimmo, Joint Patrons of the Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA) Foundation, hosted a Dinner in honour of Mr Tim Fairfax AC, one of Australia’s leading philanthropists, who is retiring as President of the Foundation.
The Miles Government is determined to support Queenslanders like these, especially in regional communities, to prosper from the clean energy transformation.
Projects like CopperString will deliver new jobs and economic growth from Townsville to Mount Isa.
This is a truly astounding chart from @Gavekal
Despite rocketing rates, Canada's household debt service ratio now is similar to Australia's when we had a 0.1% cash rate.
Australia truly is worlds apart from most nations.
CopperString 2032, the electrical superhighway of the North, is one step closer to construction after a $1.3 billion commitment from Queensland Government. This funding will progress detailed design and engineering, procure equipment with long lead time and establish a 100-strong permanent Powerlink project team.
This is a significant millstone towards unlocking the North West Minerals Province and the renewable potential of North Queensland - and we can't wait to get started!

"We understand that the global energy crisis is North Queensland’s jobs opportunity." – @MickdeBrenni discussing NQ's potential to be renewable energy superpower ☀️⚡️
It was great to hear the Minister today mention @solarcitizens' Townsville polling during question time 👇👇
We polled Townsville residents and found:
🌞 85% support Townsville becoming a hub for renewable-powered industry and manufacturing.
🌞 55% think Queensland should be fully powered by renewables by 2032 when the State hosts the Olympics.
