What will Australia’s housing look like in 2066? 

And if we have what has been labelled a housing crisis in 2026, with a population of 28 million people - how will we house 40 million people in 40 years? 

Those are some of the questions looked at in the latest intergenerational report - a landmark report from the Federal Treasury released every few years. 

We’ll look at the answers to those questions, and how different political parties are proposing we solve the housing crisis in today’s podcast.

Most of the emissions coming out of an Australian home come from four or five familiar machines: the car in the driveway, the hot water system, the heater, the cooktop. Rewiring Australia's modelling puts those household choices at more than 38% of the national total. The catch is that most of those decisions are made last-minute, when the hot water dies on a Tuesday and the plumber is already on the way with a unit on his truck. By Rewiring's count, about 5,000 Australians hit one of those moments every single day. The non-profit has spent years working out what actually happens when real houses go electric, street by street - but a handful of experts can only talk a few hundred households through it, and there are 11 million homes in this country. Today we're speaking with Francis Vierboom, CEO of Rewiring Australia, about Electric Saul. How do you have 11 million conversations at once? You build a free tool with Google AI that asks for your postcode and then talks to you like a mate at the pub.
