The report—written for Solar Citizens by respected industry analyst Tristan Edis from Green Energy Markets—shows that a staggering 90% of Queensland’s electricity needs could be met by the renewable projects currently in the planning pipeline and the spread of rooftop solar.

If all the projects in the development pipeline proceed, the large-scale clean energy plants would deliver 14,867 MW of generation capacity, 33,975 jobs in construction and 1,562 ongoing full-time jobs.
