Renewable energy
-
Investment co-ordination can be particularly problematic for renewable generation because such generation is often remote from existing load centres and major transmission lines, and individual renewable generation plant is typically small relative to the size of the regional demand.
-
The Government’s objectives in relation to renewable electrical energy are that:
• undue barriers to investment in renewables should be reduced or removed
• the efficient uptake of renewable generation should be promoted
• the national transmission grid should be planned and made available so as to facilitate the potential contribution of renewables to the electricity system
• the specification of the grid planning processes and approval criteria should allow grid upgrade plans to facilitate the efficient and timely development of renewable generation resources, taking into account any difference in lead times for transmission and generation investment.
