Description

Rewired is back for its biggest season yet. In season four, we will hear how ARENA funding is helping to trial new ways of producing metals like steel and aluminium using renewable energy. Experts will share progress commercialising technologies like renewable hydrogen and electric vehicles, which are finally achieving long-held potential. And we will explore how Australia’s riches of wind and solar could unlock opportunities to undertake more energy-intensive processes onshore, creating jobs and wealth. This is our most ambitious season to date, with twice as many episodes giving us the chance to showcase more of the ways Australia is unlocking a renewable energy future.
