It is responsible for monitoring, reviewing and reporting on reliability, security and safety of the national electricity system and advising the AEMC in respect of such matters. The Panel’s responsibilities are specified in section 38 of the National Electricity Law. This work is copyright. The Copyright Act 1968 permits fair dealing for study, research, news reporting, criticism and review. Selected passages, tables or diagrams may be reproduced for such purposes provided acknowledgement of the source is included. Foreword I am pleased to present this report setting out the findings of the Reliability Panel's annual review of market performance. The Panel carried out this review in accordance with the requirements of the National Electricity Rules where we have reviewed the performance of the National Electricity Market (NEM) in terms of reliability, security and safety over the 2013-14 financial year. The NEM regions experienced the warmest spring on record for Australia in 2013. Temperatures were warmer than average for Australia over summer and autumn with a number of heat waves affecting Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania during January 2014.

    Wind Energy in NSW: Myths and Facts

    Wind Energy in NSW: Myths and Facts 1 INTRODUCTION Wind farms produce clean energy, generate jobs and income in regional areas and have minimal environmental impacts if appropriately located. Wind farms are now increasingly commonplace and accepted by communities in many parts of the world, but they are quite new to NSW. To increase community understanding and involvement in renewable energy, the NSW Government has established six Renewable Energy Precincts in areas of NSW with the best known wind resources. As part of the Renewable Energy Precincts initiative, the NSW Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water (DECCW) has compiled the following information to increase community understanding about wind energy. The technical information has been reviewed by the Centre for Environmental and Energy Markets, University of NSW. The Wind Energy Fact Sheet is a shorter and less technical brochure based on the Wind Energy in NSW: Myths and Facts. The brochure is available for download at www.environment.nsw.gov.au/resources/climatechange/10923windfacts.pdf.
