Concentrating solar power (CSP) is about to step out of the shadow of other renewable technologies and establish itself as the third biggest player in the sustainable power generation industry.
CSP does not compete against other renewable energies; it is an additional one that is now economically viable.
This report is based on latest data from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. It includes a ‘call to arms’ from some of the Australia’s leading scientists, commentators and politicians.
In 2008, the Esperanza travelled up Australia's east coast to promote its Energy [R]evolution report, which showed how Australia could make a transition to renewable energy. The ship then travelled to Papua New Guinea, to document the extent of illegal logging in the region and highlight the contribution logging makes to climate change. We also launched the award-winning Origami whales online petition, a new Truefood Guide and continued to put pressure on the federal government to quit its addiction to coal.
This report provides a blueprint showing how to apply existing technologies to halve global CO2 emissions by 2050, while allowing for an increase in energy consumption.
