Energy Insiders Podcast: Ross Garnaut and why Australia can be a renewable superpower

Leading economist and climate change policy expert Professor Ross Garnaut joins Energy Insiders to explain how Australia can reach 100 per cent renewables in little more than a decade, and then go further and be a renewable superpower.

Garnaut next week launches his new book: Superpower – Australia’s Low Carbon Opportunity.
