Erwin Proell, the governor of Lower Austria (the largest of Austria's 9 states, with a population of 1.6 million) announced on Thursday that his state now gets 100% of its electricity from renewable sources (63% hydroelectric, 26% wind, 9% biomass and 2% solar).
"Since 2002 we have invested 2.8 billion euros ($3bn) in eco-electricity, from solar parks to renewing (hydroelectric) stations on the Danube," Proell told a news conference.

lower australia is home to one of the world's largest known shallow deposits of brown coal in the world, as well as large natural gas reserves... no matter how much coin the greenies can scrounge there's no way lower australia will ever be powered by all renewable sources
