The Finkel Review is an opportunity for politicians, regulators and industry to deliver for much needed certainty for climate and energy policy in Australia. However, there are a number of concerns relating to how the Finkel Review addresses climate change and renewable energy: • ***The 28% minimum emissions reduction for the electricity sector is far too weak even to meet the Federal Government’s 2030 targets The Finkel Review report is a step in the right direction, but much more needs to be done to reduce the emissions of Australia’s biggest polluter - the electricity sector - by ramping up renewables and energy storage uptake and making energy efficiency improvements. 🌄🌅🌄🌅🌄🌅 Australians are crying out for a strong, clear direction from government. The review is an orange rather than green light for a renewable powered future. 🌄🌅🌄🌅🌄🌅 Australia’s Chief Scientist, Dr Alan Finkel, released the findings of a review into the future of the National Electricity Market. The Finkel Review was tasked with developing a “blueprint” for the national electricity market (NEM) that: • ***delivers on Australia’s emissions reduction commitments • ***provides affordable electricity, and • ***ensures a high level of security and reliability. 🌄🌅🌄🌅🌄🌅 If you would like to take steps to be more renewable and would like to know more about getting safe, reliable and recyclable battery storage for your own home, business or micro-grid visit us at http://quantum.GridEdge.com.au 🌄🌅🌄🌅🌄🌅 #globalwarming #climatechange #batterystorage #renewableenergy #gridedge #alternativeenergy #batterysafety #recyclablebattery #batterysize #Finkelreview #FIAMM #FZSoNick #climatechange #cleanenergy #thefutureofenergy (at Australia)

One of the things that you should consider when putting battery storage on your home is whether or not the battery chemistry is toxic either in its manufacture or disposal or in its day to day use. Often, one of the reasons that people put solar panels on their house and put in battery storage to collect the excess usage is to protect the environment and reduce the need for coal powered power stations. This can be counterproductive if you choose a battery that is made from toxic materials or has components that can't be recycled. Lithium Ion is a very toxic substance and the mining of it is mainly done in third world countries with dubious safety conditions. There are also a lot of questions regarding its recyclability at end of life due to this toxicity. Lead is a toxic metal with documented health risks. Bromine vapour can be poisonous at room temperature. The FIAMM SoNick battery is made from salt and is completely non-toxic and is also 100% recyclable. #EnergyStorage #Battery #Sodiumnickelbattery #renewableenergy #gridedge #recyclablebattery #non-toxic #non-toxicbattery (at Australia)
