About Australia

A warming of 1.0°C is sufficient to move climate belts about 150 km south. A regional temperature change of 2 °C likely to have a serious impact on most life forms, and on most ecosystems and agricultural areas.

Changes by 2040

About Western Australia

About WA

Climate is key determinant of agriculture - changes in climate will impact on crops and livestock.

Rising temperatures will cause a shift in budburst, shorter growing seasons, earlier harvest dates, lower crop quality, changes in soil temperatures.

Wheat growing areas in SW WA seriously impacted Northern wheatbelt likely to disappear, south reduced. Wipes out most of an industry worth more than $2 billion.

Climate is a key influence in grape selection. Shifting rainfall patterns and drier conditions will change the way

vineyards operate and reduce the wine crop. WA produces around 5% of all Australian wine, about 25% of wine in

super-premium and ultra-premium categories.

Adoption of technology

The natural turnover and retirement of appliances, buildings and vehicles can bring about a modest penetration of sustainable energy in the next ten years.

However, adoption of new technology is often not just ‘natural’

The transition to sustainable energy, like many new technology shifts, will be more rapid with changes favoured by: policy measures and regulation; consumer sentiment; pricing advantage.

Technology adoption rates

Can historic deployment rates be used to describe future technologies? Expect some similarities – just faster!

Small-scale deployment for approximately five years- exponential growth and an inflection point ten or more years after first application

Is there an opportunity for disruptive technology entry? Beginnings of disruptive innovation may be in market

innovations, Vehicle ownership model (eg Better Place) could rapidly change

the how and what is purchased Roof top solar – companies may own the panels on your roof

Australian renewables 2011…

The transformation of Australia’s energy mix has begun – in 2011 new electricity generation construction 25% solar, 31% gas and 33% wind.

Coal-fired power currently 75% of Australia’s total generation - in 2011 only 14% of new investment was coal.

This is still behind the average world-wide investment in renewable energy – China’s economy 8 times larger than Australia, investment in renewables over 20 times larger!
