Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we explore Australia's long-term energy efficiency outlook through to 2058. Drawing on detailed sector-level forecasts, we break down expected improvements in the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. Learn about the underlying assumptions, including the "frozen efficiency" baseline and how both market-led (AEEI) and policy-driven factors shape future gains. We’ll guide you through three key scenarios – Progressive Change, Step Change, and Green Energy Exports – each reflecting different trajectories of economic growth and policy ambition. Plus, we unpack the role of critical policies and programs like building codes, appliance standards, and energy savings schemes in driving change. Tune in for a data-driven look at Australia’s path to a more energy-efficient future.
