Energy at home
Queensland's fast-growing population, economy and powerful industrial base require an increasing supply of energy in all parts of the state.
Energy in various forms powers the state's electricity generation, manufacturing, transport and mining industries, commercial sectors and Queensland's homes. More people, more air-conditioners, more industry and development across the state means Queensland's energy needs will continue to rise.
The Queensland Government is planning now for future energy challenges, including helping Queenslanders save energy in and around the home and also to ´Do the Bright Thing´ by switching to solar power or solar hot water to reduce electricity costs and greenhouse gas emissions.
