A bit about me
100percentrenewables.com.au
Co-founder of 100% Renewables
Sustainability consultant
Speaker and facilitator
Author of “Energy Unlimited”
I help my clients map out a path to 100% renewable energy
Today I will talk about
100percentrenewables.com.au
How I got into energy and carbon consulting
The Four-Step Methodology for achieving 100% renewable energy
Why do I do what I do?
Global warming and energy consumption
Energy; 60%
Other GHG; 21%
Agriculture; 11%
Industrial processes; 5%
Waste; 3%
100percentrenewables.com.au
60% of our worldwide GHG emissions come from energy use

I recently visited Austria
100percentrenewables.com.au
Lower Austria now runs on 100% renewable energy
Large hydro59%
Small hydro4%
Wind26%
Solar PV2%
Biomass9%
Lower Austria: 100% Renewable Energy
Fossil fuels85%

Australia:14.6% Renewable Energy

All of Austria: 67% RE NSW: 14% RE
Why did I write the book?
100percentrenewables.com.au
I want Australian organisations to achieve 100% renewable energy
We developed the Renewable Energy Master Plans for
Lismore City Council and Coffs Harbour Council
We developed a number of scoping studies for councils and other
businesses to maximise the generation of on-site renewable energy
I wanted to share my experience, which is why I decided to write
“Energy Unlimited”
The Four-Step Methodology for achieving
