"Imagine a world powered by clean energy. It’s the year 2050, and you’re
driving your electric vehicle—which costs less than a single tank of gas a
month to charge—past a field of wind turbines and solar panels. On the horizon,
you see advanced manufacturing plants and clean hydrogen production facilities
that use the renewable power these nearby structures generate to produce
medical tools, clean fuels, and other critical equipment. Hundreds of your
neighbors work at these plants, playing their role to create the essential
ingredients that power a clean energy economy. In this clean energy future,
you’re able to heat your home during a winter storm and cool your house during
a summer heat wave without the risk of a blackout.
This vision for 2050 will create millions of jobs all around the world, lower
electricity costs, and decrease sicknesses and deaths from reduced air
pollution. A lot needs to happen to realize this vision in the next 30
years—and it will take investors, policymakers, and regulators coming together
to overcome one of the largest obstacles to creating this clean energy future:
upgrading our grid, building more transmission lines, and connecting these
lines across regions."
Australia has very similar issues.
