Electrifying Bradfield is about doing what we can to support adoption of renewable energy within the Upper North Shore. We have a vision of a cleaner, cheaper energy future made possible by the electrification of our houses and transport. This vision is heavily influenced by Saul Griffiths and 'Rewiring Australia'.
Electrifying Bradfield works mainly using volunteer time. Contributing $50 goes a long way to helping us run solar information nights, attend markets and fairs and provide educational materials.
Note that Electrifying Bradfield is a not-for-profit, although not a certified charity (DGR).
Confronting Four Aussie Myths About Action Against Climate Change!
In reading and listening to much corporate and social media commentary and in conversations I have with people there seem to be four very common Aussie myths about climate change and energy and actions we need to take!
All of these myths need to be challenged!
MYTH 1: ‘Coal exports are essential to our future economy’ – WRONG!

This is a question I am asked often when people talk to me about ‘climate change’
Simple answer –
WEATHER – is the day-to-day conditions of things like:
*sun [sunny, cloudy, partly cloudy, overcast] and temperature, [hot,warm,cold]
*precipitation [drizzle, showers, rain, dew, frost, rain, storms, hail, snow]
*wind - strength[gentle, light, strong, gale, tornado] & direction

This is the Rewiring Australia deck. It shows how electrification combinations can save a household money. Included are capital costs and interest charges.
- Combine solar, heat pump hot water and an electric car. Most of the cheap energy from solar is consumed on site resulting in the greatest savings. $4,100 saved per year
- Heat pump + solar is likely to save more than$400/year
- Electric cars are likley to save more than $1500/year

- CONTEXT: One of the most central planned actions by those in Australia proposing a move to nuclear energy is the cutting of '36,000 public servant positions in Canberra'. ( David Littleproud, Triple M interview, August 2024) !
PROBLEM: 'A huge new bureaucracy, numbering thousands of EXTRA public servant positions would need to be created to establish and support a nuclear power industry'!!
- Finally, last week, the supposed costings for a move to develop nuclear energy in Australia were released.
- The costings derive from a report by Danny Price, Managing Director of 'Frontier Economics'.
- Apart from the fact that there are no 'small-scale nuclear reactors operational anywhere in the world, there are a number of other very serious issues that need to be considered about the modelling on which the Report is based., These include the assumptions behind the modelling and the interpretations of the results by both Price and spokespersons from the Coalition politi
- AUSTRALIA TO SIGN AGREEMENT TO END PUBLIC SUBSIDIES TO INTERNATIONAL FOSSIL FUEL PROJECTS!
- Australia is expected to sign an international agreement between a group of western countries to end public money subsidies for international oil, gas and coal projects: A major and significant step to phasing out o0f fossil fuels!
- The signing is part of the United Nations international agreements on climate change action!
- The way forward for Australia in this Clean Energy Transition Partnership Agreement was created
- This month marks the 50th Anniversary of the discovery of the technology that changed the production of solar panels!
- It is the scientific breakthrough that is now the basis of over 90% of all the world's silicon solar panels.
- In 1974, Martin Green was a PhD candidate in the Department of Engineering at the University of NSW when he began his interest in solar energy.
- While there were solar panels already available their efficiency in terms of energy produced (watts) was extremely low. He set out to remedy this.
