"The switch to a renewable based grid is complex, rapid and irreversible. And
recent events, such as the international geopolitics that has created chaos in
Australian and global energy markets – has only strengthened the case for an
accelerated green energy transition.
That is the main message from Australia’s Energy Market Operator in releasing
the final version of its
2022 Integrated System Plan, its roadmap to a rapid
transition to a grid dominated by renewables, featuring two-way energy flows
and technologies that will draw on cheap, green power rather than coal, gas and
oil.
“Recent international events and Australian market events have further
strengthened the case for the shift to renewables,” AEMO chief executive Daniel
Westerman says.
“Investment in low-cost renewable energy, firming resources and essential
transmission remains the best strategy to deliver affordable and reliable
energy, protected against international market shocks.”
And, in a pointed acknowledgment of the new federal Labor government and its
$20 billion transmission plan, he notes that “Rewiring the Nation” policy will
support the ISP roadmap’s timely and effective delivery."
