释义 |
CareerWood has worked in the energy, transport, chemical and fertiliser industries. He contributed to the Garnaut Climate Change Review in 2008 and worked with the Clinton Foundation from 2009 to 2014 as director of its Clean Energy programme. He was appointed director of the energy programme at the Grattan Institute in mid-2011, and has represented it in publications,[3] on radio[4] and at public forum.[5] He was on the executive board of the Committee for Melbourne and the Green Energy Taskforce of the Northern Territory Government. He has also worked as a financial advisor for PricewaterhouseCoopers[6] and has served as Chairperson of the Energy Retailers Association of Australia.[7] His areas of interest include natural gas, carbon capture and storage, solar power and nuclear power.[6][9] Nuclear powerIn 2011, Wood contributed a chapter on "Nuclear power in Australia's energy future" to Australia's nuclear options, a policy perspective document for the Committee for Economic Development of Australia. He argued that the need to reduce carbon emissions in order to limit the impacts of climate change should bring into consideration the possibility of nuclear power in Australia.[7] In February 2012, Wood told interviewer Andrew Charlton that "the cost or acceptability of nuclear energy would remain a challenge in Australia."[8] Wood's publications on The Conversation declare him to be a shareholder in BHP Billiton (a resources company engaged in uranium mining and a Foundation Partner of the Grattan Institute).[2] Solar powerIn 2015, Wood told the ABC that the environmental benefits achieved by Australia's take-up of solar photovoltaic panels had come at great cost to Australian taxpayers- a net cost of "about $9 billion". He said "in the time that we had could have done a lot better, with that money, or we could have actually reduced greenhouse gas emissions a lot more cheaply... and then we could have been moving onto a different future for solar." "Solar with batteries in the future might be a much better way." John Grimes responded in defence of solar panel deployment, stating that the report Wood was referring to was "cherry-picking", and was "designed to cast solar PV in the worst possible light." [9] EducationTony Wood has a postgraduate diploma in business administration from the Queensland Institute of Technology and a master's degree in Science (Physical chemistry) from the University of Queensland.[10] References1. ^{{Cite web|title = Tony Wood|url = https://theconversation.com/profiles/tony-wood-2993/activities|website = The Conversation|accessdate = 2015-05-30}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Wood, Tony}}2. ^1 {{Cite web|title = Could smaller be better?
