This car highlights the groundbreaking innovations in renewable energy industries and demonstrates how these cost-saving technologies are now readily available to everyone.

He will also be speaking on the number of energy efficient home appliances and their practical benefits. Also speaking will be Ms Kirsten Macey from the Queensland Conservation Council (QCC). A past environmental activist and anti-nuclear campaigner, Kirsten is now the facilitator for the QCC Cool Communities project, which is helping to create cool solutions to global warming. Kirsten will be talking about energy efficient home appliances, and she will also be speaking on the benefits and savings available from solar power and other renewable energy technologies. “Cost-saving renewable energy technologies are easily available these days” says TREC coordinator Stuart Shaw, “and the Renewable Energy Home Show will be jam-packed with all the renewable energy innovations and benefits available to the householder.” Part of the promotion of the event includes a free information package on home-based renewable energy innovations.
