Government introduced a number of changes to the RET in June 2010. As of 1 January 2011, the RET will be split into two parts - the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) and the Large-scale Renewable Energy Target (LRET). The LRET, covering large-scale renewable energy projects, will deliver the vast majority of the 2020 target (41,000 GWh). The SRES, covering small-scale technologies such as solar panels and solar hot water systems, will deliver the remainder of the target and provide a fixed price of $40 per megawatt hour of electricity produced.  Synopses of operating Australian geothermal companies and their activities for 2010 are provided in Appendix A. 8.2 National Policy 8.2.1 Strategy In 2010, changes were made to the Australian Government‘s existing set of policies and programs aimed at supporting the development of affordable and efficient low-emission and renewable energy technologies and reducing Australia‘s greenhouse gas emissions. The Government‘s primary mechanism for stimulating investment in renewable energy is the expanded Renewable Energy Target (RET) which is designed to ensure that the equivalent of at least 20 per cent of Australia‘s electricity is generated by renewable sources by 2020. The RET is a mandatory market-based mechanism that will provide a cross subsidy to the renewable energy sector worth billions of dollars. In addition to the RET, the AU$5 billion (US$5.2 billion) Clean Energy Initiative (CEI) provides a comprehensive range of measures to support the development, demonstration and introduction of low emission technologies that are not yet commercially competitive in Australia‘s electricity sector. The CEI includes the AU$1.5 billion (US$1.6 billion) Solar Flagships Program, which aims to construct and demonstrate large-scale solar power stations and the AU$1.68 billion (US$1.75 billion) Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Flagships Program designed to accelerate the development and demonstration of CCS technologies. The CEI also includes the Australian Centre for Renewable Energy (ACRE), which is administering over AU$690 million (US$720 million) to be allocated to a range of renewable energy programs and initiatives to demonstrate and commercialise emerging renewable energy technologies, and the AU$150 million (US$160 million) Australian Solar Institute, which will advance and accelerate innovation in solar thermal and solar photovoltaic technologies in Australia. The Australian Government has adopted a multifaceted approach to policies and programs to transition to a lower carbon economy and address climate change, including investigating options around market based mechanisms, support for low emission and renewable technologies and support for energy efficiency initiatives across multiple sectors of the economy. The Government‘s emissions reduction target is to reduce emissions by 5 to 15 percent or 25 percent below 2000 levels by 2020, with greater reductions where major economies agree to substantially restrain carbon emissions or to stabilise greenhouse gases at 450 parts per million or lower. 8.2.2 Legislation and Regulation (including acreage releases) In Australia, legislation and regulation of geothermal exploration and development is state and territory government responsibility. Each of the six states (New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania, Victoria and Western Australia) and one territory (Northern Territory) has legislation in place to regulate geothermal exploration and development. Relevant legislation is 79
