Investors

Australia’s clean energy industries are underpinned by world-class renewable energy potential, a highly skilled workforce, innovative research, stable investment conditions, and robust infrastructure. 

To accelerate industry growth, the Australian Government offers substantial financial incentives, regulatory reforms, and other enablers designed to attract private investment and streamline regulatory processes. 

Critical minerals are essential for technologies like electric vehicles, solar panels, wind turbines, hydrogen electrolysers, and batteries. 

With some of the world’s largest reserves of minerals such as lithium, cobalt, and rare earths, Australia is well-positioned to lead the global critical minerals industry. Our expertise in mining equipment, technology, and services further supports this ambition. 

Metals are crucial for infrastructure, and decarbonising their production is key to achieving net zero. 

While current production methods are highly emissions-intensive, green metals offer cost-efficient decarbonisation pathways. Australia’s competitive advantage lies in its abundant metal ores and capacity to generate renewable energy at competitive prices, meeting growing global demand for low-emission products. 

Liquid fuels account for about half of Australia’s final energy demand. As sectors transition to lower-carbon alternatives, LCLFs offer viable pathways to emissions reduction, particularly in areas where electrification is challenging. 

Australia’s vast land, temperate climate, advanced farming practices, renewable feedstocks, and robust supply chains position the nation to develop a large-scale domestic LCLF industry. 

Hydrogen is a versatile product with applications in industrial processes, fuel, and chemical production (e.g., ammonia and methanol). 

Australia’s renewable hydrogen potential aligns with its strengths in manufacturing and industry, making it pivotal for net zero transitions in sectors like transport, grid stabilisation, and metals production.
