20.01.2022 Strong energy targets for buildings could deliver emissions and power savings in Australias Top End: New report The Northern RDA Alliance has supported the development of the report that shows:... Building Code improvements from 2022 onwards could save Queenslanders $6 billion in energy bills between now and 2050, $430 million for the Northern Territory and $4 billion in Western Australia. These benefits outweigh the upfront costs of the improvements. Updating the Building Code from 2022 could reduce emissions by 19 million tonnes for Queensland, 2 million tonnes in the Northern Territory and 10 million tonnes in Western Australia. See the report here https://www.asbec.asn.au/res/built-to-perform-northern-aus/

The Competition, now in its second year, aims to encourage school students from years 5- 10 to create innovative ideas to deal with real problems.

Alan Bradley, Director of Regional Development Australia - Mid West Gascoyne (RDAMWG) said its fabulous to be able to provide these young innovative thinkers with the tools and opportunity to be part of the Young Innovators Competition. Hopefully inspire them to think about a career in the start-up world and help make Geraldton a hub of innovation.
