A momentary grid imbalance left millions across the Iberian Peninsula without power. As Australia pushes towards renewables, one question looms large…

In the heart of K’gari, a World Heritage-listed sand island in Queensland, sits the beautiful Lady Elliot Island Eco-Resort. The resort has been leading the sustainability charge since 2008, when it became one of the first resorts in Australia to implement a hybrid energy system.

In the heart of Australia's Northern Goldfields, a groundbreaking collaboration between global mining giant BHP and renewable energy provider TransAlta has given rise to one of the world's largest off-grid mining solar and battery energy storage systems.

In the fight against climate change, businesses all over the world are adopting cleaner, more sustainable practices. In 2023, SMA Australia was honoured to work alongside one of these eco-conscious businesses, helping The Eye Surgery Hastings transition to 100% renewable energy for their New Zealand clinic.

If the energy transition is to succeed and climate change is to be halted, renewable generation must be significantly expanded. To achieve this, large spaces in particular must also be used for solar power production. Like the rooftop of the Australian Panel Products’ (APP) particleboard production and distribution facility - there, earthconnect has built Australia`s largest rooftop solar system under the most challenging conditions.
