Another Tesla Megapack project in Australia has broken ground, set to replace a former coal plant as part of a sustainable energy hub in Queensland. The Megapack project is also just one of a number of renewable energy projects being debuted in Australia, coming as a part of the Miles Labor Government Big Energy Build.

At a local level, Queensland is encouraging miners to prepare for the time when coal is no longer their main product. Australian miners are global companies that are leading the search for critical minerals and materials to enable the green industrial revolution. But there is also a lot of movement on the international stage.

Significant cost reductions can be achieved by front-loading the deployment of renewables, mainly wind and solar photovoltaic, and by utilizing the technologies needed to balance their inherent intermittency, such as energy storage and thermal balancing power plants. As utilities do this, the mindset of energy leaders will change.

Even if electricity is produced from burning coal, the power plant is far away from population centers, transferred over power lines keeping any direct pollution away from the population. And the percentage of clean energy is growing every year as coal and gas plants are being replaced by renewable energy sources.
