The next generation of NSW Electric Buses will be built in Nowra
The South Coast is set to become a new manufacturing hub for the next generation of public transport with the creation of a brand-new electric bus manufacturing facility in Nowra.

Three years ago, we produced an eight-part If You're Listening series about Australia's energy debate - past, present and future. Not that many people listened to it.
Looking at the coming Australian election campaign, it's just as relevant now as it was in 2022. www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

Quite new to Bluesky, could someone tell me how to bookmark articles like Rick’s below please.
Brereton is doing a great job of filibustering this NACC oversight committee hearing which has just 90 minutes for questions from senators. Almost half an hour gone now and he's still in his opening statement. Mostly rehash of his speech from last week so far.

At some point those living in National Party held seats might ponder why despite voting Nationals for 50 years they don't live anywhere near a major hospital
