An urgent search is on across the globe to find new, renewable
and cleaner energy sources that will power future development
without further damaging our planet. Our current dependence on
fossil fuels has contributed to observed global warming. Rapidly
rising demand for crude oil, coupled with dwindling reserves,
threatens Australia's economy and transport fuels security.
Monash has dedicated research teams working on cleaner energy
technologies to decrease our dependence on fossil fuels and
reduce harmful emissions. Our researchers have embraced their
responsibility to future generations by leading work in
geothermal energy, brown coal innovation, biofuels, solar energy
and hybrid car fuel cells. - Monash Sustainability Institute -
