The Transition to a Low Carbon Economy: Inaugural Torrens Lecture
The world will require a mix of future generation technologies
as it struggles to balance rapidly increasing demand against the need for a
fundamental behavioural shift towards energy conservation, the need to secure
supply and carbon emissions.
Delivering the inaugural Torrens Lecture on
21 March, Dr Tim Stone says the transition to a low carbon economy will be a
rugged journey. The lecture titled: ‘The Transition to a low carbon economy:
the need to develop energy and government policy to support a national energy strategy’
considers the scale of the task and the urgency to begin.
