  • 2014-11-25 QWON Power Stations
    LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL C1379 QUESTION WITHOUT NOTICE (Of which some notice has been given) Tuesday, 25 November 2014 Hon Robin Chapple to the Leader ofthe House representing the Minister for Energy. Please provide a summary of all active power stations in Western Australia, including: age; capacity profile; fuel and/or mine type; number of employees; whether it is on or off the grid; and the closure schedule. I thankthe Hon. Member for some notice of this question. I table the attached document. The Public Utilities Office has relied on the Independent Market Operator for data concerning generators on the SWIS and has reported the maximum sent out capacity offered by these facilities into the Balancing Market, as of 25 November 2014. These figures may differ slightly from the number of capacity credits awarded and from facility nameplate capacity owing to factors including parasitic load and ambient temperature. For NWIS and NIS facilities, various sources have been used as there is no single definitive list of facilities. The nature of mining operations has not been investigated. The Public Utilities Office does not have access to data on the number of employees or on the closure schedule of power stations. The expected plant life of power stations is variable, a function of maintenance regimes and commercial considerations. ATTACHMENT TO QWN C1379 . 'I .

  • Power Sector in Australia
    Opportunities for Japanese Investors Power Sector in Australia Allens is an independent partnership operating in alliance with Linklaters LLP. Where we're at Australia's power sector is changing rapidly, spurred by increasing political pressure, ongoing reforms at state and national level and a growing international focus on renewable energy. For more than two decades, the power industry has been in a state of evolution, with disaggregation, corporatisation and privatisation breaking down traditional markets and creating major opportunities for investors, financiers and operators. The renewables market is a particular focus for investors, especially in the areas of wind, solar and energy storage. Australia has set a Renewable Energy Target (RET) for large-scale generation of 33,000 GWh. To meet this goal, almost a quarter of electricity must be generated through renewable energy, and 6,000 MW will need to be constructed by 2020. But time is of the essence, as success is dependent on new renewable energy projects reaching financial close during 2017, allowing enough time for construction before 2020. There are currently 9,000 MW of shovel-ready renewable energy projects to invest in, all with the necessary development approvals to begin construction. While traditional sources of power, such as coal and gas, are slowing down, there is still potential for future development and it's an area to watch. The imminent retirement of ageing coal-fired power stations has also accelerated interest in energy technologies which resolve short-term power supply concerns, such as grid-scale batteries and pumped hydroelectric energy storage. Update on Japanese investment into Australia Japan is the largest source of investment Recent Japanese investment into Australia has extended to a broad range of industries, including power.

  • P1206d-1207A Mr Fran Logan
    Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY - Wednesday, 19 March 2008] p1206d-1207a Mr Fran Logan ECONOMIC REGULATION AUTHORITY — “ANNUAL WHOLESALE ELECTRICITY MARKET REPORT FOR THE MINISTER FOR ENERGY” Statement by Minister for Energy MR F.M. LOGAN (Cockburn — Minister for Energy) [12.03 pm]: I wish to table the “Annual Wholesale Electricity Market Report for the Minister for Energy”, as compiled by the Economic Regulation Authority following its first review of the effectiveness of the wholesale electricity market. The review was conducted in accordance with the requirements of section 128(1) of the Electricity Industry Act 2004 and clause 2.16.11 of the Wholesale Electricity Market Rules. I am pleased to note that the report indicates that the energy market has been performing effectively since it commenced trading electricity on 21 September 2006. The report represents another significant milestone in the government’s successful electricity reform program and shows that the wholesale electricity market is providing an effective mechanism for energy industry participants to trade electricity within the south west interconnected system. The successful operation of the wholesale electricity market together with other reform measures, such as the disaggregation of the Western Power Corporation, is having tangible benefits on increasing the competitiveness of the electricity industry in this state. In particular, the report notes that a number of new participants have entered the market since it commenced. Since 2006, four significant new power stations have come on line. Another five are scheduled to begin operation over the next year or two, and another four are being developed. This increased level of market participation is primarily being accomplished via the reserve capacity mechanism, which is an integral feature of the wholesale electricity market.
