| Germany's Feldheim - energy self-sufficient and showing the way ahead. |
Australia is the best
placed of the world’s developed countries to embrace and adopt renewable
energy.
All the components needed for a renewable energy system
abound, but the one missing critical ingredient is the political will.
While Australia prevaricates about the idea of becoming energy
self-sufficient, others, in this case a German village, are actually doing it.
An ABC story headed: “German village Feldheim the country's first community to become energy self-sufficient” articulates the success of
others that shames us.
“The rural village of Feldheim, 80 kilometres south of
Berlin, is at the vanguard of Germany's energy revolution, boasting a wind
farm, solar plant, biogas and biomass facilities”, the ABC reports.
