tells the story of Australia’s energy transition. We are still dependent on coal for almost half of our generation needs. Solar is major, wind power is minor. Gas is a constant irritation. But things are changing — obvious for those who know where to look. We recently took a cruise, as many retirees do, and as the ship navigated its way out of the Brisbane River, it was great to see the wharf decorated with rows of wind turbine blades.
By the end of the year, research should be completed on how wind turbines affect threatened bird and bat species. One focus will be the flight height of the Southern Bent-wing Bat so as to avoid potential collisions. The proposed map should include Brolga breeding sites so that they can be protected.
“Victoria is home to fantastic species indigenous to our lands and waters — we’re making sure they’re best protected as we head towards net zero emissions,” Minister for Environment Steve Dimopoulos added.
