This report proposes establishing 'Sovereign Power', a Commonwealth entity to build firmed renewable generation for Australia's heavy industry. By leveraging lower public borrowing costs, it could provide electricity at $66/MWh, 44 percent below market rates, securing sovereign capability and supporting the 'Future Made in Australia' framework.

This report examines Australia's battery storage boom, detailing how two million household batteries by 2030 could save $4 billion annually. It analyses falling costs, state-level progress, and vehicle-to-grid technology, providing policy recommendations to integrate storage across the grid to accelerate the transition to a reliable, renewable energy system.

This guide explores First Nations co-ownership in Australian clean energy projects. It details financial structures, including corporate models and quasi-equity arrangements. The report outlines benefits like economic empowerment and risks such as capital access barriers, providing case studies and negotiation strategies for First Nations communities.

This report identifies the financial and strategic benefits of First Nations participation in Australia's clean energy transition. It highlights five key investor advantages, including accelerated development cycles and improved capital access. It also outlines actions to overcome participation barriers through existing toolkits and international models to unlock economic value.

The Smart Energy Council provides recommendations to enhance national productivity through electrification, circular economy initiatives, and regulatory reform. Key focuses include a $7.3 billion solar resource recovery opportunity and addressing mining approval delays that risk $51 billion in GDP, advocating for streamlined environmental standards and transport decarbonisation.

Analysis by Nexa Advisory identifies Australia’s commercial and industrial energy resources as a 28 GW untapped opportunity. With only 5 GW currently installed, the report recommends dedicated tenders and tariff reforms. Unlocking this capacity could avoid $11 billion in network costs and accelerate the clean energy transition.

The Clean Energy Investor Group (CEIG) responds to the Commonwealth Government’s consultation on EPBC Act reform. Representing a $14 billion renewable energy portfolio, CEIG advocates for sector-specific guidance, improved National EPA resourcing, and clearer streamlined assessment criteria to ensure a predictable and efficient transition to a clean energy future.

The Clean Energy Outlook 2026 report highlights declining investor sentiment in Australia's renewable sector. Key challenges include transmission delays and planning approvals. While New South Wales remains the top investment destination, confidence in meeting the 2030 target is low. However, data centres offer significant opportunities for new generation.

The Clean Energy Investor Group (CEIG) supports the Electricity Services Entry Mechanism (ESEM) to address the National Electricity Market's tenor gap. This submission emphasises the importance of contract bankability, investment-grade counterparty ratings, binding transmission development plans, and transparent procurement processes to ensure a successful clean energy transition.

The Clean Energy Investor Group provides feedback on the Electricity Services Entry Mechanism contract designs. It endorses the Regional Reference PPA and a $600/MWh price cap, while emphasising the need for robust Force Majeure management, negative pricing protections, and index transparency to maintain project bankability and market liquidity.

This report analyses the NEM Review's recommendations for the Electricity Services Entry Mechanism. It highlights declining wind investment and rising costs, advocating for contract designs that prioritise financeability over fungibility. The Clean Energy Investor Group recommends reforms to address the 'tenor gap' and support new renewable energy entry.

The 2026 Integrated System Plan outlines Australia’s transition to 98% renewable generation by 2050. The roadmap identifies the least-cost pathway, requiring 117 GW of utility-scale solar and wind firmed by 50 GW of storage. The plan delivers $28 billion in net market benefits while ensuring system reliability.

This Clean Energy Council report highlights a strong first quarter for energy storage in 2025, with $2.4 billion in new investment commitments. Generation projects experienced a slower start, contributing 386 MW. The analysis details project pipelines, cost trends, and the accelerated deployment required to meet Australia’s renewable energy targets.

This report analyses Australia's large-scale renewable energy sector in Q4 2025, detailing a significant investment rebound. It highlights record-breaking commissioning outcomes for generation and storage projects. Despite strong quarterly performance, annual investment totals remain below 2024 levels, with the report identifying ongoing planning and infrastructure challenges as key hurdles.

Australia's renewable energy sector experienced a soft Q2 2025, with only 615 MW of generation committed. Total 2025 commitments of 1,173 MW represent roughly one third of the required run-rate for 82 per cent renewable targets. However, utility-scale storage deployment remains on track with record commissioning averages.

The TIMES-NZ 3.0 report explores New Zealand's energy future through two scenarios: Steady and Shift. It highlights falling energy demand and emissions, driven largely by road transport electrification. The research identifies that demand flexibility and batteries could provide up to $20.8 billion in value by 2050.
