The role of natural gas in the energy transition
This article explores the key reasons why natural gas will be crucial to the transition to a low carbon economy, as well as the role the Gas & Energy Transition Research Centre will play in filling asociated knowledge gaps.
Natural gas in Australia
This article summarises the natural gas industry in Australia, detailing its uses, extraction methods, and geographic locations. It highlights how natural gas, used in electricity generation, manufacturing, and exports, has been increasingly sourced from both conventional and unconventional reservoirs like coal seam gas, especially in Queensland.
The Great Artesian Basin(s)
This article examines the Great Artesian Basin, one of the largest groundwater basins globally. It explains the Basin's crucial role in supporting agriculture, ecosystems, and communities, while also highlighting the importance of sustainable management to ensure its long-term viability.
Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS)
This article explains the concept of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) as a method to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from industrial processes and power plants. It outlines the importance of CCS in addressing climate change by capturing and storing CO₂ underground, especially for emissions from fossil fuel-based energy sources.
