Description

The mayors and regional leaders responsible for the communities hosting Queensland's energy build-out share what the opportunity looks like from the ground up. Jobs, infrastructure, local business growth and the gaps between aspiration and delivery, grounded in the day-to-day reality of regional Queensland rather than the investment case.
