Interview: 'We don't want the renewable industry to become part of the problem' - Oliver Yates from the Sentient Impact Group

Oliver Yates (pictured) wants Victoria to capitalise on the wonderful wind resource of Bass Strait and has given oxygen to this idea through the Sentient Impact Group, a company he now heads after a long spell with Clean Energy Finance Corporation.

Oliver was one of the many speakers at the June 22 conference - "State Energy Summit Victoria" - organized by the Clean Energy Council.

Not only does Oliver want Australia to move as quickly as it can to renewable energy sources, but he also wants to see that happen as we protect other species and so his group has developed what it calls the "Forever Fund" - he discusses that in this episode and more detail about that matter can be found on the group's website.

If passion alone can make something happen, Oliver already has floating wind turbines in the Bass Strait.
