Fast tracking renewable energy projects
Australia is paving the way for a renewable energy future, setting an ambitious target of 82% renewable electricity generation in the National Electricity Market (NEM) by 2030.
Achieving this target requires an accelerated expansion of wind and solar capacity — currently, renewables account for just 35% of total energy production, meaning output must more than double in the next five years — alongside a focused effort to reduce project timelines.
In this series we explore the key barriers to a fast, efficient approval process and the best-practice approaches that can help shorten the time and cost of bringing renewable energy projects to market.
