Three ways Australian sustainability projects tackle energy and waste
Australia carries 410 tracked projects on Keys for Tomorrow. The catalog centers on dispatchable clean energy and turning waste streams into resources.
Australian projects on the platform lean heavily into energy hardware — solar storage, clean-air engines, switchboards. Waste conversion, from plastics to textiles, is the other big theme. Three approaches keep showing up.
1 Make renewable energy dispatchable and gridworthy
A recurring Australian pattern: solar and storage technology. Plus the electrical hardware needed to actually integrate it into microgrids and EV charging.
RayGen
RayGen is at the forefront of solar energy innovation. It offers advanced solar and storage solutions that deliver reliable, dispatchable renewable energy. Their technology combines high-efficiency solar generation with long-duration energy storage, making it a game-changer for sustainable energy applications.
Clean Tech Controls
Clean Tech Controls specializes in manufacturing high-quality electrical switchboards. These cater to various energy demands, including renewable energy integration and microgrid applications. Their innovative solutions ensure reliable power supply and support sustainable development goals.
Everty
Everty is an Australian company that provides a cloud-based platform for managing electric vehicle charging stations. Their solutions cater to various stakeholders, ensuring efficient and sustainable charging infrastructure.
2 Convert waste into fuel, chemicals and textiles
A second group turns discarded material into usable resources, from hydrothermal liquefaction of waste to nationwide textile redistribution.
Licella
Licella is an Australian technology company focused on converting waste into valuable fuels and chemicals through its innovative Cat-HTR™ platform. By utilizing Hydrothermal Liquefaction, Licella transforms non-recyclable plastics and biomass waste into sustainable alternatives. This contributes to a circular economy and reduces environmental impact.
SCR Group
SCR Group is dedicated to giving unwanted textiles a second life. By collecting and redistributing clothing across Australia, they significantly reduce landfill waste while supporting communities in need.
Engineair
Engineair’s Di Pietro engine is a compact rotary engine that operates on clean compressed air. It provides an efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional power sources. With its lightweight design and high mechanical efficiency, it has the potential to transform various industries while promoting sustainability.
3 Monitor and embed sustainability into materials
The third pattern is environmental intelligence and materials science — predictive monitoring platforms and solar cells embedded directly into composites.
Envirosuite
Envirosuite provides an advanced environmental intelligence platform that combines software and hardware solutions for real-time monitoring and predictive capabilities. With over 30 years of experience, the company helps organizations manage environmental risks effectively. It also fosters community trust through transparency and engagement.
Praxis Solar
Praxis Solar is transforming energy use by embedding solar cells into composite materials. This creates lightweight, durable, and efficient solutions for various applications. Their innovative approach enhances energy generation while maintaining aesthetic integrity, paving the way for a sustainable future.
