Melbourne to Brisbane Inland Rail The Australian Government is trying to decide whether to go ahead with building an inland railway that would create a route between Melbourne and Brisbane, costing an estimated 114 billion dollars. The project would take an estimated ten years to build (ARTC, 2017). The railroad is planned to range for approximately 1,700 km, linking the cities via regional Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland. This route is planned to use existing interstate lines and a combination

According to Black (2005) the “energy gap” is the shortfall of fossil oil, natural gas and other fossil fuels, and this phenomenon is due to there is an increase trend for the need of fuels in Britain. However, we must face the phenomenon that fossil fuels will run out in the near future. Due to this energy gap, we need to look for alternative sources of energy, and the UK government wants to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, so they believe that nuclear power can close the energy gap.

condenser temperatures are around 30°C. This gives a theoretical Carnot efficiency of about 63% compared with an actual efficiency of 42% for a modern coal-fired power station. • The power output or capacity of an electric plant can be expressed in units of megawatts electric (MWe). The electric efficiency of a conventional thermal power station, considered as saleable energy (in MWe) produced at the plant busbars as a percent of the heating value of the fuel consumed, is typically 33% to 48% efficient.

What fossil fuels are: Fossil fuel is a general term for buried combustible geologic deposits of organic materials, formed from decayed plants and animals that have been converted to crude oil, coal, natural gas, or heavy oils. How fossil fuels are formed: Fossil fuels are formed over time where sand, sediment and rock bury the organic matter, it eventually forms large quantities of fuels by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over hundreds of millions of years. Different types of
