Abatement Potential in Australia's Energy Sector

Reducing emissions Reducing greenhouse gas emissions in Australia will affect all areas of the state (regardless of the choice of policy mechanism). From the Project Emission Reduction Opportunity Model, Australia needs to drastically reduce its emissions and draws a clear conclusion that all economic sectors need effective emissions reduction measures. The Australian economy is increasingly diversified and includes many important economic sectors that have been the focus of various support and policy making activities.

Avoid pollution: When you consume energy from a power plant to a car, emissions that are harmful to the environment are generated. But energy efficiency investment in the largest sector of our economy can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 110 million tons a year - it will be a year with all US cars It is equivalent to transporting a truck. Keeping Our Army Secure: The troops need fuel to refill their troops, but the battlefield replenishment mission is dangerous. In fact, 80% of the land distribution task in Iraq and Afghanistan is for fuel, and soldiers are killed by (on average) 50 refueling fleets. Only in 2011, 1,100 fuel convoys were attacked. In electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles, fleets are reduced due to energy-efficient generators and other energy saving measures, and if the fleet decreases, the number of casualties will decrease

Today there is growing interest in reducing energy consumption for heating, cooling and drying, thereby reducing the production of carbon dioxide. In fact, as large amounts of fossil fuels are used as the main source of energy for air conditioning and industrial use, it has led to a constant change in carbon dioxide, which is accelerating the rapidly emerging global climate change . The energy consumed by heating and cooling of buildings (residential or service use) and industrial processes is calculated to account for 50% of the EU's annual energy consumption. This is mainly due to the fact that about half of the buildings in the EU are old and inefficient, renewable energy is used in these fields and the large amount of heat generated in industrial processes is released to the atmosphere or water .
