Welcome to the second edition of the energy briefing update!

Each quarter the Energy Efficiency Council brings you practical, up-to-date information on grant opportunities, energy markets and policy so that you are in the best possible position to manage the risks – and capture the opportunities – of Australia’s energy transition.

In this edition, we examine the FY21-22 Federal Budget and the opportunities it presents to businesses around energy and carbon. The national energy markets update also looks at the recent record low and negative wholesale electricity prices, the increase in gas prices and what that all means for Australian businesses.

Read on for:

• Policy update - Federal Budget special;

• National energy markets; and

• New grants and other opportunities.

We want to support as many businesses as possible, so:

About Navigating a dynamic energy landscape

There is an enormous amount of information on energy in the public domain, yet it can be hard for business leaders to extract what matters for their businesses.

Navigating a dynamic energy landscape: a briefing for Australian businesses is an executive-level briefing designed to cut through the noise and help businesses confidently navigate Australia’s dynamic energy landscape.

The sector spotlights and other resources that accompany the briefing exist to support this aim.

This initiative is delivered by the Energy Efficiency Council with the support of industry and the NSW Department of Industry, Planning and Environment.
