Abstract

Green Technology Transmission (GTT) offers a powerful framework for addressing global environmental challenges and advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). While GTT has the potential to contribute to multiple SDGs, this study specifically examines its role in supporting SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), and SDG 13 (Climate Action). Conducted within the Australian industrial context, this research employs a qualitative-dominant mixed-methods approach to explore the environmental, economic, and social impacts of GTT. By examining organisational barriers and proposing practical, industry-specific strategies, the research offers actionable solutions to align practises with sustainability goals. This study explores GTT’s role in reducing emissions, improving resource efficiency, and fostering social equity, with leadership and stakeholder collaboration emerging as key enablers. The findings demonstrate how GTT serves as a bridge between policy and practice, empowering high-emission industries to adopt sustainable practises and contribute meaningfully to global sustainability efforts.
