Prices versus the planet - changes to the Victorian Renewable Energy Target

from Earth Matters · host Corey Green, Pat Simons, Megan Wheatley

On this week's Earth Matters we're looking at the Victorian government's recent promise to legislate their renewable energy target. Victoria currently produces about 17% of its electricity using renewable resources. The target is to increase that to 25% by 2020 and 40% by 2025. The legislation has just passsed in the lower house. We'll be talking to Pat Simons from Yes2Renewables about what this means, and what it took to get to this point. We'll also be talking to Megan Wheatley from Senvion, who are a manufacturer of wind turbines, about how legislation effects their work.
