Support our bid for WTC 2028 in Brisbane, Australia
Brisbane’s bid for the World Tunnel Congress 2028: Australia stands at a critical juncture as it seeks to navigate the complex challenges of decarbonisation and water security in an era of global climate change. The proposed World Tunnel Congress (WTC) 2028 in Brisbane offers a unique opportunity to align these national goals with global expertise.
Energy transition: Australia’s Carbon Neutrality Roadmap represents a significant shift in generating and consuming energy. Renewable energy generation is set to soar by 600%, and these sources are supported by pumped hydro projects for short- to long-term energy storage.
Water security: Australia’s arid climate constantly challenges the security of sufficient water resources. The country has invested heavily in desalination plants, currently numbering over 240, to supplement its drinking water supply.
The Australian tunnelling industry plays a vital role in supporting not just the transport sector, but also the country’s energy and water infrastructure projects. This conference offers a valuable opportunity to link domestic requirements with global expertise, encouraging collaboration and innovation in this wide range of areas.
Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre (BCEC) is ideally located in the heart of Brisbane, offering a unique riverside cultural & lifestyle precinct. The walkable nature of the city and connected public transport delivers a cost effective and sustainable method of getting around.
