Low Emission Technology Australia Information

Low Emission Technology Australia (LETA) is an investor in technologies critical to reducing carbon emissions from industry. Our collective goal under the Paris Agreement is a zero emission future. But to get there we need to close a widening divide. Low emission technologies are critical to achieving this goal and will help manage the emissions generated by industries and the way we live. Until recently LET Australia was called COAL21. We changed our name because Low Emission Technology Australia much better reflects what we do, which is invest in technologies that significantly reduce carbon emissions. The innovations of these technologies can reduce and remove existing and future sources of industrial emissions. This includes from coal fired and other electricity generation, steel and cement manufacturing, mining processes and other future energy sources, such as hydrogen. The technology doesn’t discriminate against where carbon comes from, but will be critical to reaching a zero carbon emissions future. Since 2006 Australia’s black coal producers have committed $550 million to identify, research and develop technologies that can make a real difference to how we produce energy, steel and other materials so that the carbon dioxide can be captured and permanently stored, prevented, or reused in other applications. LETA continues this important work.
