Forget nuclear, Australia is on fast lane to 100pc renewables
michaelwest.com.au/forget-nucl

Australia's politicians have argued over renewables for decades. Some are wasting time on purpose and hyping nuclear power to keep us using fossil fuel.

Meanwhile, citizens and private industry have led the way with solar power. Australia is well on the way to 100% renewable energy — sooner than many people realise.

Michael West · Forget nuclear, Australia is on fast lane to 100pc renewables - Michael WestA massive increase in solar power generation capacity is already putting Australia on the fast track to a 100% renewable energy future.

The solar film is crafted using scalable printing techniques with semiconducting inks, resulting in a device much thinner than a human hair. It generates 18 times more power per kilogram than traditional panels.

Potential applications include integrating the film onto boat sails for at-sea power, attaching it to tents in disaster recovery zones, or applying it to drone wings to extend flight duration. ​
