New strategic initiative Regional Australia’s Renewables
About the initiative
This initiative aims to demonstrate the viability of renewable energy in regional and remote locations. It will support the deployment of commercially prospective renewable energy technologies, both generation and enabling, in off-grid and edge-of-grid situations.
Consultation sessions
To help design the initiative, ARENA has been consulting with stakeholders. A series of 12 face to face meetings were held in Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Karratha, Darwin and Cairns between 26 November and 12 December.
Stakeholders were able to make written submissions on the initiative.
