What is the Renewable Energy Atlas?
- The Renewable Energy Atlas is an interactive Atlas of Australia that provides information on Australia’s Renewable Energy Resources.
- The Atlas profiles wind, solar, geothermal, ocean energy and bioenergy resources.
- There is also contextual data such as energy infrastructure, transmission lines and power plants, roads, land tenure and climate information.
Who is the Atlas for?
The Renewable Energy Atlas is designed for everyone interested in renewable energy, including government policy makers, decision makers in the renewable energy industry and educational and community institutions who wish to learn more about renewable energy in the Australian context. The Renewable Energy Atlas is designed to provide enough information to give a high level overview with appropriate contact details for those who wish to pursue their investigations further.
Who created the Atlas?
The Renewable Energy Atlas is developed and maintained by the Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts with data provided by specialist service providers. This is the first stage of a more comprehensive Renewable Energy Atlas.
