  • Review of Electricity and Gas Retail Markets in Victoria
    Submission to the Review of electricity and gas retail markets in Victoria Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) Brotherhood of St Laurence March 2017 About the Brotherhood of St Laurence The Brotherhood of St Laurence (BSL) is an independent non-government organisation with strong community links that has been working to reduce poverty in Australia since the 1930s. Based in Melbourne, but with a national profile, the BSL continues to fight for an Australia free of poverty. We undertake research, service development and delivery, and advocacy with the objective of addressing unmet needs and translating the understandings gained into new policies, new programs and practices for implementation by government and others. Brotherhood of St Laurence 67 Brunswick Street Fitzroy Vic. 3065 ABN 24 603 467 024 Ph. (03) 9483 1183 www.bsl.org.au For further information or to discuss this submission, please contact: Damian Sullivan Research and Policy, Senior Manager, Energy, Equity and Climate Change Brotherhood of St Laurence Email: [email protected] Ph. (03) 9483 1176 Mob. 0414 960 274 Introduction The Brotherhood of St Laurence commends the Victorian Government for undertaking the Review of electricity and gas retail markets in Victoria and we welcome the opportunity to provide a submission. Central to our approach is – energy is an essential service. Without the services energy enables – heating, cooling, lighting, entertainment – households’ health, wellbeing, social and economic participation are all put at risk. Such concerns are not merely academic. We know the numbers of disconnections have increased – forcing some households to go without energy, at the same time we know other households trade off paying their energy bills with other needs such as buying food or participation in school excursions (see for example Chesters 2013).

EnergyAustralia is one of Australia's largest energy companies, providing gas and electricity to 2.6 million household and business customer accounts in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia and the Australian Capital Territory. EnergyAustralia owns and operates 5,000 MW electricity generation, which includes rights to more than 1,000 MW of renewable energy, In Victoria we have 500,000 customers, 2500 MW of electricity generation capacity and employ over 2000 people. Our position in summary EnergyAustralia supports the Victorian Government's climate change vision of a positive, orderly and just transition for all Victorians. To us this means transitioning Victoria's emission intensive energy mix to cleaner forms of energy in a way that minimises costs to households and businesses and ensures reliability is maintained. We think the best way to achieve this is through national and bipartisan agreement on emissions reduction. This is why we support the National Energy Guarantee (the Guarantee).

The AEMC is currently responsible for Rules and policy advice covering the National Electricity Market. It is a statutory authority.

Selected passages, tables or diagrams may be reproduced for such purposes provided acknowledgement of the source is included. Foreword The energy industry has been the subject of widespread reforms. At the start of the last decade, the industry was characterised by isolated state-based integrated monopoly businesses that were predominantly government-owned. The performance inefficiencies attributable to the monopoly structures and the absence of interconnection and effective competition prompted a joint government initiative to establish a dynamic, interconnected national energy market.

  • Chapter 2: Victoria's Renewable Energy Resources
    Chapter 2: Victoria’s renewable energy resources Introduction Despite wide recognition of the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions, particularly in relation to the energy sector, renewable energy accounts for only a small percentage of Victoria’s energy production. The installed capacity of operating renewable energy projects by source is set out in figure 2.1. Hydroelectric power makes up the largest percentage – 56 per cent followed by wind (34 per cent), biomass (8 per cent) and geothermal (1.3 per cent).Total electricity installed capacity (the maximum rate at which power can be produced) in Victoria in 2008 was 9,290 megawatts.6 The renewable energy capacity component was approximately 1,151 megawatts.7 Figure 2.1 Renewable energy – installed capacity of operating projects in Victoria (as at 22 October 2009) Tidal: 0.15MW, 0% Biomass: 110.1MW, 8.1% Geothermal: 18.15MW, 1.3% Wind: 458.4MW, 33.7% Solar: 13.3MW, 1% Hydro: 760.1MW, 55.9% Source: Sustainability Victoria, personal communication, 22 October 2009 6 Victorian Government, submission no.21, p.3 7 Victorian Government, submission no.21, p.3 5 Inquiry into the Approvals Process for Renewable Energy Projects in Victoria Although the capacity represents approximately 10 per cent of total electricity, the amount of renewable energy actually produced ranges between 2 and 4 per cent. 8 Renewable energy production is currently at 1.8 per cent due to the falling water levels in hydroelectric dams. As Ms Marianne Lourey, Executive Director of Energy Sector Development, Department of Primary Industries explained to the Committee: The big issue with the numbers [percentage of renewable energy] at the moment is the drought.
