The International Energy Agency’s (IEA) review of Australia’s energy policies and the Energy Security Board’s (ESB) National Energy Guarantee consultation paper combine to demonstrate what we can learn from other countries and strategies to address Australia’s energy policy challenges.Energy Networks Australia welcomes two reports released today that outline Australia’s way forward to manage our energy challenge.

“Australians have a right to expect safe and reliable energy, even as we reduce emissions,” said Energy Networks Australia CEO, Andrew Dillon.

“We welcome the IEA report’s focus on integrating variable renewables into our grids, its emphasis on the need for a transformation of our energy distribution systems and identification of the need for effective natural gas markets,” he said.
