Renewable Energy Industry Profile Townsville & Dry Tropics 2018
RENEWABLE ENERGY INDUSTRY PROFILE TOWNSVILLE & DRY TROPICS 2018 For decades, north Queensland has relied on electricity generated in the south-east of the state – but now the picture is starting to change. Three new solar farms have been switched on it to the rest of the state. If all proceed, they in the Townsville & Dry Tropics region1 this year, could generate more than 15% of Queensland’s and another 12 large power plants – driven current electricity needs. by the wind, sun and water – are planned or under construction. This renewable energy boom is already creating new jobs, supporting local businesses and These clean energy projects will be able to providing benefits for local communities. provide electricity for the local area and export As the sunniest city on Australia’s east coast, Townsville is poised to become Queensland’s renewable energy capital. The Townsville & Dry Tropics region is blessed with an years to come, north Queensland could even export abundance of solar, wind, hydro and biomass resources, electricity to neighbouring countries. which can be sustainably harnessed to generate The map at right provides a current snapshot of the affordable clean energy. region’s large-scale renewable energy industry. It shows The area has some of the best solar energy resources in known renewable energy projects that are already the world, and solar farms here generate 25-50% more operating, under construction or currently being electricity per unit than most other countries. This gives planned. We can expect to see many more projects like us a competitive advantage on the world stage, so in these proposed in the future.
