Integrating Renewables Into the Grid: Stocktake Project Integrating Renewables into the Grid: Stocktake project Stocktake Results Prepared for the Australian Renewable Energy Agency Version 1 August 2014 Integrating Renewables into the Grid: Stocktake project | Version 1 Notes Stocktake Format This document is only an interim format for distributing the stocktake results. an online portal that will allow easy searching, filtering and exploring Assessments of Relevance The projects in the stocktake were included on the basis that they address or inform one or more objectives that relates to integrating renewable energy into Australian distribution networks. In this stocktake, we have assessed the degree to which each project addresses or informs each of these objectives. The purpose of these assessments is to let users find the projects in the stocktake most relevant to them. The assessments that each project receives are not intended to judge whether the project was successfully executed or not. A project may be completely successful on its own terms, yet tied to an unusual physical or regulatory environment that makes it largely impossible for other entities to adopt and learn from: it would be assessed as less relevant. Conversely, a project may have utterly failed to achieve its own goals, yet the reasons for its failure may be highly instructive to other entities: it would be assessed as more relevant. The table below shows the possible assessments that a project can receive against each objective. Relevance Description When will projects will receive this score? Assessment LOW Informs or addresses the There is a qualitative link between the project objective, but in an indirect and the objective, and or unclear way or tangible lessons that other Australian entities can readily use. MED Informs or addresses the There is a strong articulated link between the objective clearly and project and the objective, clear evidence that the directly project has addressed it, and tangible lessons that other Australian entities can readily use. HIGH Informs or addresses Only exceptionally thorough, comprehensive and objective clearly and directly informative projects will receive this enough to constitute assessment. essential knowledge for other entities.

Two key concerns dominate the discussion of agricultural energy: pricing volatility of energy and government policy supporting renewable energy. Together these concerns have resulted in a stimulated interest in the potential substitutes for fossil fuels. A scarcity in energy sources (particularly crude oil) has highlighted the dependence of energy-related agricultural inputs such as fertilizer, electricity and fuels for farm plant and irrigation pumping. As government policies develop, environmental concerns related to global climate change and market signals from the consumer to improve sustainability have encouraged investigation of alternative energy sources to transform the relationship between the energy and agriculture sectors.
