| Popis: | Over the next few years, Australia must modify its dependence on natural oil and place greater reliance on other fossil fuels and renewable energy sources. The management of this transition is a major task, and can only be successfully achieved through a co-ordinated programme of action by Commonwealth and State Governments, supported by widespread public understanding of the issues involved. The recommendations in this report have arisen from the deliberations of the Task Force on Energy, which commenced work in 1975. The Task Force and its associated twelve working parties included many of the leading energy experts in Australia, in engineering, science and economics. They are associated with State Governments and energy instrumentalities, Commonwealth agencies, private enterprise, consulting engineering, universities and research bodies, but have co-operated in the work of the Task Force in their personal capacities. Overall, at least one hundred key specialists were associated with the working party studies. There was wide-ranging national co-operation in these studies, and information on critical energy issues throughout Australia was freely exchanged. |
