More Renewable Energy to be linked to the Grid

Australia To Link More Renewable Energy Sites To The Power Grid Source: Government of Australia  The Gov Monitor  6th December 2009 “……..

The 21st meeting of the Ministerial Council on Energy met in Hobart today and agreed to accept a proposal to amend Australia’s electricity rules as recommended by the AEMC.

Ministers agreed that this proposal – together with the AEMC proposal to introduce inter-regional transmission charging arrangements – will encourage greater investment in infrastructure linking renewable energy generation sites to the existing power grid.   As MCE Chair, Minister Ferguson welcomed these developments.

The MCE agreed with the AEMC’s key finding that energy markets will generally be resilient to the challenges associated with the introduction of climate change policies but there was a need to refine existing frameworks to facilitate necessary investment.
