Welcome to Ray Wills Home Page

I am Chief Executive of the Sustainable Energy Association of Australia (SEA), the peak business body for the sustainable energy industries, and with 400 members, SEA is one of the largest chambers of its kind in Australia.

I am an Adjunct Professor at the School of Earth and Environment, The University of Western Australia where I teach in a senior course on environmental change and climate change that includes examination of the science, future impacts and politics of global warming. I am also a Member of the Advisory Board of the Curtin Institute for Biodiversity and Climate.

I am a member of a number of policy groups including a member of a Board Member of the Stirling City Centre Alliance, I am also a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Energy and a member of the WA Branch Committee.

Previously, I was also a member of: the Ecological Society of Australia Council for 13 years including Vice President for four years, retiring from this position in 2003; Department of Resources, Energy and Tourism Energy Efficiency Skills Committee; the WA Government's High Level Stakeholder Group on Greenhouse; Deputy Chair of the WA Land Information System's (WALIS) Advisory Committee, and a member of several policy committees with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, including Deputy Chair of the CCIs Climate Change Committee.

With climate change now rightly recognised as an urgent and pressing issue that must be addressed with practical solutions, it is logical that sustainable energy will play an important role in delivering a raft of affordable and immediately accessible solutions to both reducing greenhouse emissions and providing alternative sources of energy for the world. As a professional presenter, I do a range of tailored presentations for professional and community audiences on environmental change and climate change, and on the science and economics of global warming (see here), but also on a range of other subjects - including conservation, natural resource management - another example is here.

I was recognised as one of the Top 100 Global Leaders in Sustainability in 2011.
