Jurisdictional review and tenure Queensland regulates geothermal energy under the Geothermal Exploration Act of 2004. The Act will be replaced by the Geothermal Energy Act101 in 2011 which is intended to be more comprehensive legislation covering both exploration and production.102 The new Act will support the goals of the Queensland Renewable Energy Plan to advance geothermal developments in the State. Currently, under the Exploration Act, a call for tenders is made and the winner is granted an exploration permit. The bids must include a proposed work program, and evidence that the applicant has the technical and financial resources to carry out the proposed work. The permit holder is required to conduct geothermal exploration and report on the resources to the State.103 Other parcels for land can be accessed through application, provided that is it not in a restricted zone. Permits are granted for a maximum of five years and can be renewed for up to three years.104 The initial permit fee is $1,150.105 New South Wales took a different approach than Queensland by incorporating geothermal provisions into the state Mining Act of 1992, by including geothermal resources as a mineral.106 Geothermal tenure can be issued based on a company’s request on first-come, first-served basis, or as a result of tender of designated mineral allocation areas.107 The state issues an exploration licence that gives the holder the right to explore for the minerals for up to five years (and can be renewed for up to five years). If the exploration proves positive, an assessment lease is “Geothermal Energy: Royalties and Fees.” http://www.pir.sa.gov.au/geothermal/investing in_sa/royalties_and_fees; Australia Resources, Energy and Tourism, Australian Geothermal Industry Development Framework. 101 Government of Queensland, Draft Geothermal Energy Act (2010). 102 Queensland Mines and Energy, Queensland Geothermal Legislation Proposed Changes Fact Sheet. http://www.dme.qld.gov.au/Energy/geothermal_energy.cfm; Queensland Mines and Energy, “Mines Legislation and Policy,” 2010. http://www.dme.qld.gov.au/mines/mines_legislation_policy.cfm 103 Government of Queensland, Geothermal Exploration Act (2004). 104 Ibid. 105 Government of Queensland, Licenses, Permits and Royalties. 106 Government of New South Wales, Mining Act 1992 No. 29. 107 Personal communication, Melanie Brown, Government of New South Wales, Australia. 108 Dauwalder, “Australia: Geothermal Energy in Queensland and Australia.” 109 Government of Victoria, Geothermal Energy Resources Act and Regulations (2005). 110 Government of Victoria, Geothermal Energy Resources Act (2005), S. 18.. 111 Ibid., S. 20. 112 South Australia, Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Act (2000). 113 Dauwalder, “Australia: Geothermal Energy in Queensland and Australia.” 114 Western Australia, Petroleum and Geothermal Energy Act (1967). 115 Dauwalder, “Australia: Geothermal Energy in Queensland and Australia.” 116 Government of Tasmania, Mineral Resources Development Act (1995). 117 Dauwalder, “Australia: Geothermal Energy in Queensland and Australia.” The Pembina Institute 29 Building a regulatory framework for geothermal development in the NWT
