Jurisdictional review Royalties In South Australia, Tasmania and Western Australia, the royalty rate for geothermal energy is 2.5% of the value at the wellhead.118 In New South Wales, the royalty rate is 4% of the value of recovered resource.119 Victoria charges a varying rate of royalty agreed upon in the lease conditions.120 3.6 New Zealand Resource potential and installed capacity New Zealand has an abundance of premium high-temperature geothermal systems. In 2010, there were 4,000 MW of installed capacity with an additional 1,100 MW of high temperature resources available.121 Geothermal energy is primarily for electricity generation, but is also extensively used for direct use purposes. 90% of New Zealand’s primary geothermal energy development is found in one region (Waikato),122 however there are also significant resources in other regions. Definition of geothermal resource The Resource Management Act (1991) defines geothermal energy as “energy derived or derivable from and produced within the earth by natural heat phenomena; and includes all geothermal water.” Geothermal water is defined as “water heated within the earth by natural phenomena to a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius or more; and includes all steam, water, and water vapour, and every mixture of all or any of them that has been heated by natural phenomena.”123 Resource ownership, rights issuance and tenure Existing geothermal licences distributed under the former Geothermal Energy Act of 1953 were converted to water permits when the Resource Management Act came into effect in 1991. Under the new Act, resource allocation and the management of development are handled by regional governments. Each region develops a Regional Policy Statement and a Regional Plan as an integrated framework for all development, including geothermal.124 118 South Australia Primary Industries and Resources “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. 119 Government of New South Wales, Mining Regulations (2003). 120 Government of Victoria, Geothermal Energy Resources Act (2005), S. 103. 121 Colin Harvey et al. “2005–2010 New Zealand Country Update,” in Proceedings of the World Geothermal Congress 2010 (Bali, Indonesia, April 25-30, 2010). http://www.nzgeothermal.org.nz/Publications/2005-2010-New- Zealand-Country-Update_0168.pdf 122 Environment Waikato, Operative Waikato Regional Policy Statement (2000). 123 Government of New Zealand, Resource Management Act (1991). 124 Ibid., S. 88.
