Future Electricity Supply Chain and Sustainable Kitchen Appliances

This essay examines Australia's current electricity generation methods, focusing on the transition from traditional sources like gas and coal to renewable energy. It highlights the role of the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) in coordinating energy generation and the importance of transmission and distribution networks. The essay further explores how environmentally sustainable kitchen appliances, incorporating advanced technologies and green building principles, contribute to reducing electricity usage, conserving natural resources, and minimizing environmental pollution. These appliances promote energy efficiency, reduce plastic use, and maintain food nutrition, ultimately enhancing both environmental sustainability and human health. The document includes a reference list.

Current electricity and future electricity supply chain:
The sector of electricity generation in Australia utilises a traditional method that endures gas,
coal along with renewable sources of energy. AEMO (Australian Energy Market Operator)
coordinates energy generation in the NEM (National Electricity Market) (Aemc.gov.au, 2018).
The networks of transmission include wires, towers, transformers, underground cables, reactive
devices of power along with the equipment of telecommunication, monitoring, and switching.
The network is built, planned, maintained as well as operated by service providers of the
transmission network. The distribution networks transport electricity from the systems of
transmission to the households and commercial users. The retailers to the end users provide the
services of risk management of price and billing.
In the future, the sector of electricity generation will provide affordable, reliable, quality and
plentiful supply of electricity by reducing its dependency on fossil fuels and reducing emissions.
For that, new and advanced technologies will be exploited by Australia. The sector will utilise
more hydro, geothermal, solar thermal, waste gas along with wave, biomass as well as tidal
energy as low cost and advanced technologies are employed to access these
(Engineersaustralia.org.au, 2017). Moreover, low emission is disposed of by these electronic
products.
Environmental sustainable kitchen appliances:
The appliances of the kitchen are considered environmentally sustainable. Kitchen appliances
utilise new and advanced technologies that assist in reducing the usage of electricity. These
appliances incorporate green buildings that consist of a unique feature of construction ensuring
efficient use of natural resources like energy, water and much more. Also, according to the

remark of Ventura et al. (2014), it is to be interpreted that the reduction of electricity usage can
help in reducing the utilisation of natural resources. Therefore, these appliances of the kitchen
are assisting in conserving the physical aspects. As these appliances help in reducing the
consumption of natural resources, it gradually helps in reducing environmental pollution. This
denotes that the environmental elements are safe with these kitchen appliances for the future
generation as efficiency in energy helps in enhancing the resources’ conservation (Yu, 2016).
The technologies that have been utilised in these kitchen appliances are helping in cooking by
maintaining the nutrition of food. This automatically is assisting in providing better health
quality. Moreover, using of plastic has been reduced in the kitchen appliances that instantly
sustainably define the development of the environment. All these fundamentally denote that all
the impulses of human beings can be gratified effectually with these kitchen appliances.
