Infigen Energy is Australia's largest owner and operator of wind energy, with over 556MW of capacity. It has a development pipeline of over 1200MW of wind and solar projects with planning approvals. NSW has opportunities for further wind development due to growing demand, aging coal plants, and supportive government policies like the RET scheme. Wind is emerging as one of the lowest cost new generation technologies in Australia. Infigen's presentation outlines the investment opportunities for wind energy in meeting NSW's electricity needs.
In mid-2015, the Large-scale Renewable Energy Target (LRET) was reduced from 41,000 gigawatt-hours (GWh) to 33,000 GWh by 2020. The positive for the industry was that the amended legislation ended almost two years of uncertainty and frozen investment. The amendment also removed the provision for a review of the scheme every two years, locking in certainty for the rest of the decade. While 2015 was a tough year, it ended with much optimism. According to analysis by the Clean Energy Council and ROAM Consulting (now part of EY) , the revised target is expected to create more than $10 billion worth of investment and more than 6500 new jobs in large-scale renewable energy alone. Including the economic benefits from the small-scale scheme, the total benefit expected is $40.4 billion worth of investment and 15,200 jobs.
Over the past 15 years, Australia’s renewable energy market has continued to attract massive interest from
Developers, Contractors, manufacturers, governments and local and international investors. This reflects global
energy trends driven by factors such as a push for diversification of energy sources and asset classes,
government incentives for clean energy technology developments and, importantly, the decreasing cost of
electricity from renewable energy sources.
The renewable energy industry in Australia is well-established and mature for some technologies (eg wind,
rooftop solar PV), developing in others (eg utility scale solar PV, solar thermal/CSP and hybrid solar) and at
commercialisation stage in others (eg geothermal, wave).
At this time of increasing market interest and development, it is relevant to consider key issues and market
trends in the construction, operation and regulatory aspects of projects, and critical bankability considerations
relating to each of these issues. While this paper focuses on issues that are of most interest to project Sponsors
and Lenders, many of these considerations are equally relevant to Contractors. This paper considers these
issues in the context of utility scale solar and wind projects in Australia.
According to the Central Electricity Authority (CEA), the average per capita electricity consumption in India is about 704 kWh as compared to global world wide per capita consumption of 2,752 kWh. The Government of India is keen to increase per capita consumption of energy to raise living standards in the country. An average Indian consumes 0.53 tonnesof oil equivalent (TOE) of energy compared to the global average of 1.82 TOE.Higher economic growth is driving income growth, which in turn is driving up industrial investment and fuel consumption. In general, demand exceeds supply and there is a broad-based energy shortage, which is either met by imports or remains unmet.

The report has given focus to opportunities for precincts that are not already considered in the Trajectory to ensure that a wider system response is taken to considering the zero energy (and carbon) ready outcomes being sought.
RETOOLING NIGERIAS ELECTRICITY GENERATION SUB – SYSTEM FOR SUSTAINABLE GRID O...Najeem Olawale Adelakun
ABSTRACT
Experts are varied in estimating the amount of power needed for national development. One expert
estimated 297,900 MW by the year 2030 using a 13 percent Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The Power
Sector Road Map’s aspiration is 40,000 MW by the year 2020 while the preferred Vision 20:2020 target is
40GW (40,000 MW) available capacity. Vision 20:2020 further proposed that hydro sources contribute 10%
of this value; thermal, 80%; coal, 6% and renewables, 4%. However, as at December 2017, Nigeria’s total
installed generating capacity was 12,324.40 MW. In order to assess the fundamentals and proffer solutions
for the improvement of power generation to meet popular expectations, this work analyses the installed
capacities of the nation from 1986 – 1995, on the one hand and from 2007 – 2016, on the other hand using
graphical illustrations and tables. The gap between the two time phases was deliberate to create some effect.
The results show that over the years, there has been an apparent, non – challance towards systematic
development of Nigeria’s power sector. To put a check to this deteriorating condition / trend, useful
suggestions have been made
Key achievements:
• The Renewable Energy Advocate and the NSW Department of Industry provided support
for 17 large-scale renewable energy projects, totalling a potential 4,500 megawatts of new
capacity and $6 billion of investment.
• The $440 million Solar Flagships projects progressed with the Nyngan Solar Plant achieving
its maximum designed generation capacity and over half of the photovoltaic modules at the
Broken Hill Solar Plant are generating electricity.
• Over the past year, three large-scale renewable energy projects, including Nyngan Solar Plant,
came online, representing over $900 million of investment, 380 megawatts of capacity and
enough output to power 140,000 homes each year.
• The NSW Government sponsored the Network Opportunity Mapping project led by the
Institute of Sustainable Futures, which will highlight opportunities for renewable energy to
meet network constraints.
Victoria, while rich in renewable energy resources and strong industry capabilities in ICT, its dependence on brown coal as an energy source has meant it has struggled in demonstrating leadership in the emerging or so called "new energy" sector. This sector strategy published in 2016, suggests that the state's appetite for change has moved in the right direction, with some of the plans e.g. setting renewable energy generation targets, already being committed to publicly. This will greatly help in bringing further investment in new energy into the state.
New energy technologies are a small but growing part of Victoria’s economy. New energy technologies include forms of renewable energy, innovations that make the state's energy system more efficient, and the products and services that increase consumers’ control over their energy needs. The new energy technologies sector
creates jobs to deliver these outcomes to the state.
New energy technologies offer potential for substantial employment growth across the state because of competitive advantages in the sector. Victoria enjoys significant advantages in areas such as information and communications technology (ICT), advanced manufacturing, and material engineering. It also has abundant world-class renewable energy resources, smart meter infrastructure, and research and technological
capabilities, so it is well-placed to capitalise on sector growth.
Investment confidence in Australia’s renewable energy sector has significantly improved following the legislation of the revised Large-scale Renewable Energy Target (LRET) in mid-
2015, a new Prime Minister that is more supportive of renewable energy and a strong outcome at the Paris climate change conference. The level and pace of investment will need to increase substantially in 2016 and 2017 in order
for liable parties to deliver on the 2020 legislated target and obligation. The Clean Energy
Regulator estimates that for this to happen, around 3000 MW of new renewable capacity should
be committed in 2016.
This paper outlines the status of progress towards delivering on the 2020 target of 33,000 GWh
of new large-scale renewable energy generation. While there will be challenges, this paper finds
that there is reason to be optimistic that the required new investment will be delivered within the
required timeframe.

Offshore Wind Energy Installed Capacity to Reach 52,120.9 MW by 2022 collinsR1
The growing focus on renewable energy and the advantages offered by offshore wind energy over its onshore counterpart have led to greater installations of offshore wind energy. Favourable regulatory framework, incentives, and investments by key market players have further supported the market’s growth. The global installed capacity in the offshore wind energy market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 25% during the period between 2014 and 2022 to reach 52,120.9 MW by 2022.
How is the offshore wind energy market in Europe shaping up?
In Europe, countries such as the U.K., France, Germany, Netherlands, and Denmark are the pioneers in the offshore wind energy market and hence, Europe is the largest market for offshore wind energy. In 2013, the region reported 1,567 MW of new capacity additions in the offshore wind energy market. Germany holds about 30% of the consented offshore wind farms in Europe and has emerged as one of the leading offshore wind energy markets.
Offshore Wind Energy Market Trends and Forecast 2014 - 2022collinsR1
According to a recent market research report published by Transparency Market Research, the installed capacity in the global offshore wind energy market is expected to increase at a CAGR of 25.0% during the period between 2014 and 2022. The report, titled “Offshore Wind Energy Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2014 - 2022,” projects the annual installations in the global offshore wind energy market to reach 7,228 MW by 2022.

Mining is an energy-intensive industry, and energy is an
essential operational consideration. Energy access is becoming increasingly difficult and expensive in many regions of the world, with global energy prices leaping by 260% since 2000. Falling grades require more energy to extract each tonne of mineral. Miners are grappling with these increasing costs while commodity prices tighten, resulting in ever-narrowing operating margins.

The death of a truck operator in the USA in 2018 at a Peabody mine as a result of a fire highlights the importance of installing fire suppression systems. Firestorm has been involved in the world's largest retrofit of fire supression systems on buses. While buses may be considered simple for fire protection versus a mining machine, buses can carry up to 100 passengers and typically there is a lack of mechanical protection with the majority of the body made of fibreglass, wood and plastics that burn very quickly and are highly toxic. The risk for multiple deaths is therefore a much higher factor compared with a mining machine with one operator. The risk assessment required in AS5062-2016 needs to consider the egress paths available for an operator/passenger to safely evacuate the machine and consideration for actuators and fire extinguishers along this path.
Changes to laws in 2016 required the removal of PFAS and PFOS in both Queensland and South Australia with penalties noe effective for non-compliance. Several NSW mines have been put on notice by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to prevent further contamination of waterways. Firestorm is now moving away from exposing our own people to PFAS/PFOS systems to ensure we are providing best practice even though laws are not yet in place for NSW. This presentation looks at what it means if you choose to move away from PFAS/PFOS systems.

6. Ageing, inefficient, highly carbon intensive

Climate Council: Australia’s Electricity Sector: Ageing, Inefficient and Unprepared
Currently no credible plans to significantly reduce coal fired power generation emissions
Australia's generation sector accounts
for one third of Australia's carbon
emissions.
An ageing fleet of inefficient and highly
carbon intensive coal fired generators
needs an appropriate signal to exit the
market.
NSW coal fired generators are only
slightly younger and less carbon
intensive than brown coal fired
generators in Victoria and South
Australia (eg Liddell 43 years old and
~1.1 tonnes CO2/MWh)
Replacing Australia’s old and inefficient
coal fired plant with renewable energy
generation is one of the most effective
ways to reduce electricity sector
emissions.
7. NSW – renewable energy statistics

Climate Council: The Australian Renewable Energy race: Which States are winning or losing?
The Climate Council recently
published a state by state analysis
of renewable energy deployment
in Australia to December 2013.
The analysis shows NSW having a
large share of renewable energy
generation capacity but this is
primarily hydro plant built many
decades ago that produces little
energy.
NSW share of new renewable
energy generation expressed in
energy terms is low at 7% of
Australia’s total renewable energy
generation.
8. NSW has failed to capture its RET share to date
8
Clean Energy Council: Clean Energy Australia Report 2014
More recent figures from the Clean Energy Council show similar results.
NSW had the second lowest level of renewable energy generation of all states in 2014, and the lowest share of
renewable energy generation of all states. At the end of 2014 NSW had 450 MW of installed wind capacity – about
12% of Australia’s total and less than a third of South Australia’s capacity.
By contrast South Australia has built its renewable energy capacity from next to nothing before the RET scheme was
introduced in 2001 to a 40% share of generation in 2014.
South Australia has capitalised on its natural wind energy resources to generate much needed regional investment
and jobs, whilst NSW has seriously lagged behind other states.

NSW now has a government that is supportive of wind energy investments.
There is plenty of system capacity for new wind and a strong wind resource is available.
Minister Roberts stated yesterday that nearly 3000 MW of renewable energy projects have planning
approvals in place - with wind farms representing the largest proportion of projects.
Approximately half of the total investment in a new wind farm goes into Australian goods and
services, creating growth and employment opportunities in regional areas where it is needed most.

LRET: changing Australia’s electricity generation mix
Bipartisan support of the amended RET will restore much needed investment certainty
10
• The surplus of large-scale generation certificates created in 2010 will be largely eliminated by 2017.
• Annual RET targets rise substantially from 2016 creating a legislated demand for new investment.
• This is expected to result in a requirement for around 5-6000 MW of new renewable energy capacity to be installed
between now and 2020.
• It takes around two years for a large wind farm to be built and ramp up to full operation from the point of
commitment.
• Obligated parties face stiff penalties and adverse customer reactions if they don’t take appropriate action to avoid
breaking the law.

Australian Energy Technology Assessment (AETA) 2012 - Levelised cost of electricity (LCOE)
Wind is expected to be one of the lowest cost electricity technologies by 2030
• Renewable technologies are expected to be the cost leaders towards the end of the decade.
• The AETA cost estimates suggest that Australia’s electricity generation mix out to 2050 is likely to be very different to
the current technology mix.
• LCOE includes where relevant allowance for: carbon price, CO2 transport and sequestration cost, plant capital cost
(EPC basis) within battery limits, owners costs excluding interest during construction, fixed and variable operating
costs, fuel costs and economic escalation factors.
