The Australian government is looking to make the country a world leader in renewable energy with a billion-dollar investment package for new energy technologies.

Announcing the package on Sept. 17, Prime Minister Scott Morrison explained that the government would be providing $1.9 billion in investment for future renewable technologies that will help generate jobs and cut household costs while at the same time stabilising and securing our energy supply.
