Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities face a range of unique challenges, both existing and emerging. Acknowledging the nature of these obstacles will require different approaches, such as innovative, fit-for-purpose solutions that will also create new enterprises, promote investor certainty, market development and employment opportunities across the regions. This includes providing opportunities to develop skills in local young people and boost local enterprises.
Quantum will work with local indigenous communities to provide bespoke solutions for their waste problems, this will be achieved through creating small-scale waste to energy facilities. These facilities can process all waste coming from households and industry, using these streams as feedstock to create renewable outputs for consumption within the local communities.
Local Renewable Outputs
Local Renewable Outputs
Local Renewable Outputs
- Renewable Diesel and Gas for Consumption within the Local Communities through vehicles, households and businesses.
- All outputs will be priced lower than current fossil fuel equivalents.
Employment
Local Renewable Outputs
Local Renewable Outputs
- Each facility will employ local indigenous people, providing education and training to ensure they have the relevant skill required.
- Additional employment will be created through sub-contracting and ancillary roles for the wider community.
Land Recovery
Reduced Emissions
Reduced Emissions
- Removal of landfill sites in local indigenous communities, enabling remediated land to be utilised for other business enterprises (e.g.food production, etc.)
Reduced Emissions
Reduced Emissions
Reduced Emissions
- Reduction of emissions of a minimum of 90% through the combustion of renewable outputs when compared to fossil fuels.
- Emissions reductions off landfill sites through the abatement of landfill avoiding environmentally harmful emissions (e.g.methane, etc.).
