We’re excited to share our new guide providing a general overview of how Australia’s electricity system works, some of the drivers and policy settings driving energy and climate targets, and an example of the steps to develop a renewable energy project.

Our new guide has been produced for First Nations groups and organisations, advisors, decision-makers and Boards.

With First Nations people having rights and interests to extensive areas of land and sea, negotiating land/sea access is an essential early step in progressing any renewable energy project.

Coupled with early engagement, it is also a key opportunity for First Nations groups and communities with aspirations for clean energy development, participation, revenue and equity to be proponents or to get involved.

That can be done through strong agreements, benefit sharing, partnership, and ownership or co-ownership.
