Abstract:
The Publication in April 1988 of the document, Energy 2000: A National Energy Policy, was a landmark, since this was the first clear statement of the Australian Government's energy policy. Previously, Federal Governments had been content to tax domestic crude oil production to the level of the world oil price – so-called import parity pricing – at some benefit to the Revenue, with few other initiatives. After outlining the importance to Australia of the energy sector, this paper examines critically the elements of energy policy as stated in the document, with particular emphasis on policies for energy conservation, in some aspects of which Australia lags behind other industrialised countries. The paper concludes with some suggestions for changes to the stated policies.

Abstract:
According to the 2020 Climate Change Performance Index, Australia was ranked as the worst-performing country on climate change policy. The country has an ambivalent record of climate policy development as well as implementation, and has been criticized for its inaction. This paper considers why the country has been locked in climate policy “paralysis” through analyzing defining attributes of such a paralysis, and the tentative connections between domestic energy policies and international trade and development. We conducted a media content analysis of 222 articles and identified media narratives in three cases of energy projects in the country involving thermal coal exports, domestic renewable energy storage, and closure of a domestic coal power station. The analysis reveals that policy paralysis in Australian climate change policy can be traced back to the countervailing arguments that have been pervasive around domestic energy security, rural employment and international energy poverty. The political establishment has struggled to develop a sustainable consensus on climate change and the citizenry remains polarized. We also discuss how a “focusing event,” such as a major natural disaster can break the impasse but this is only possible if energy security at home, energy poverty abroad and employment imperatives across the board are clearly delineated, measured and prioritized.

Abstract:
This article critically analyses the opportunities for Australia to revitalise its strategically important manufacturing sector in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. It considers Australia’s industry policy options on the basis of both advances in the theory of industrial policy and recent policy proposals in the Australian context. It draws on recent work from The Australia Institute’s Centre for Future Work examining the prospects for Australian manufacturing renewal in a post-COVID-19 economy, together with other recent work in political economy, economic geography and labour process theory critically evaluating the Fourth Industrial Revolution (i4.0) and its implications for the Australian economy. The aim of the article is to contribute to and further develop the debate about the future of government intervention in manufacturing and industry policy in Australia. Crucially, the argument links the future development of Australian manufacturing with a focus on renewable energy. JEL Codes: L50; L52; L78; O10; O13: O25; O44; P18; Q42

Abstract:
This extended abstract identifies potential strengths in the resources sector supply chain, with particular reference to the oil and gas sector. It identifies areas of strength in the supply chain, particularly in fields such as geotechnical services, software, instrumentation, electrical engineering, project management, consultancy, and so on. It argues for a consistent policy approach across the many policy- and service-provision actors involved to maximise industry-development chances in the medium and long term. The economic benefits of the price, investment, and volume impacts of the present phase of mineral and resource development are well documented. They are expected to generate a continuing step increase in Australia's GDP, with benefits that will last for many years. Many actors are involved in shaping policy and providing research and other services across the commonwealth and state spheres. Relevant actors extend beyond government to agencies such as the CSIRO, the CRCs, industry associations, and research capabilities of universities and other institutions pertinent to the sector. The policy setting is complex, but there is an opportunity to build on and expand the industry and services base underpinning the resources-sector supply chain. In this regard, Australia can learn lessons from Norway where a deliberate policy strategy has helped established a vibrant offshore sector, admittedly in a considerably different institutional context. This extended abstract reviews the Norwegian experience against Australian developments and seeks to understand the role policy has played in this case. This experience is then transposed to the Australian situation.

Abstract:
In support principally of environmental goals – principally reductions in greenhouse gas emissions from the energy sector – Australian Federal and State governments have put in place a range of measures to support the deployment of increasing levels of renewable energy products and services. These market-making mechanisms complement Australia's leadership in a wide range of technologies for stationary energy applications of renewable energy, including photovoltaics, electricity storage, concentrating solar power, small wind turbines, energy efficiency products, hot dry rock geothermal and wave power. Industry is responding to these market and technology opportunities, and associated policy measures to support their growth, with the aim of growing a sizeable renewable energy sector that delivers economically competitive solutions for Australian and export markets.

Abstract:
This article compares the preferential tax treatment of capital gains in Australia and in Canada, with a view to determining whether there are any lessons from the Australian experience that may be of relevance to Canada. The tax treatment of capital gains is similar in the two jurisdictions in that both apply a 50 percent inclusion rate or the equivalent. Several aspects of the taxation of capital gains in Australia might be considered cautionary from the Canadian perspective. The Australian experience indicates that winning support for an increase in the capital gains inclusion rate can prove difficult, as demonstrated by the unsuccessful proposal by the Australian Labor Party, during the 2019 federal election campaign, to effectively raise the inclusion rate to 75 percent.

Abstract:
The Northern Territory (NT) of Australia has one of the highest rates of solar insolation in Australia which can be a catalyst for future energy development. In addition, it has a unique set of circumstances which present both challenges and opportunities for the development of its energy policies and require customised energy planning solutions and policies. This study explores the potential for long-range renewable energy (RE) planning and climate policies for the NT to transition to a low-carbon economy by 2050, while achieving sustainable economic growth. A literature review was conducted to explore the range of challenges and opportunities faced by the NT; the energy policy landscape for low-emissions technologies; key factors influencing the effectiveness of energy policies; energy policy analysis tools; and energy models used to inform energy policy. A mixed methods approach was used for this study. Qualitative data was collected through an expert stakeholder survey and interviews, analysed using the NViVO software, then used for the development of three hypothetical policy scenarios: business-as-usual (BAU), High Industry Growth (HIG) and Renewable Energy Export (REE)), as well as for input data for the Low Emissions Analysis Platform (LEAP) energy modelling tool. The results of the LEAP simulations were analysed and used to recommend potentially effective low emissions/renewable policy areas for the NT. Findings from a PESTLE analysis conducted on the survey and interview responses indicate that many of the key barriers and potential opportunities for renewable energy development fall primarily within political, economic and legislative factors, demonstrating a policy gap in the NT. Findings from the LEAP simulations indicate that under the HIG scenario, energy demand from a digital/data centre industry would be around 334.1 PJ by 2050 (compared to 208.5 PJ in the BAU) and could be met largely with 41GW of installed solar capacity and 25.5 PJ of biofuels, yield net benefits of $13.6 million, and result in emissions of around 700 kt CO2-e by 2050 (compared to 15.1 Mt CO2-e in the BAU). Policies directed primarily at the industry and transport sectors such as carbon taxes, financial incentives for electric vehicle (EV) purchases and standards that facilitate and accelerate large-scale renewable energy generation could potentially meet the high energy demand with renewable sourced energy and reduce sector emissions. Under the REE scenario, energy demand from a renewable energy export industry would be around 651.6 PJ by 2050, of which 304.3 PJ would be for the export market. This could be met by around 97 GW of installed solar capacity, yield net benefits of $30.8 million and see emissions reduced to around 159 kt CO2-e by 2050. A range of potential policy mechanisms can be applied across all sectors in the NT, however technology-specific policies applied primarily to the industry and transport sectors are likely to have a more significant impact on a lower emissions economy. These include hydrogen bus trials, lower taxes for fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), collaborations between governments, fleet operators and consumers, support for training/education programs, collaborative technology research and pilot programs. Sensitivity analyses were also conducted to explore variations in the carbon price, fuel supply mix optimization, and lower or higher industry demand growth. These results showed that slight variations in inputs and assumptions can affect the need and timing of appropriate policies to support a desired outcome or goal. In conclusion, a low-emissions economy based on an industry powered by renewable energy is possible with the support of a range of effectively timed energy and climate policies, and effective energy transition policies for the NT need to be developed with careful consideration of the unique circumstances and existing barriers in the NT. In reality, the future is likely to be a combination of elements in both HIG scenario and a REE scenario. If implemented and sequenced appropriately, energy policies can be effective in laying the groundwork for a smoother transition to low-carbon economy in the NT. Study limitations include a lack of available NT data, rapidly changing energy environment (advancements and cost reductions in technology), and limitations of the LEAP modelling tool such as its inability to model energy storage options and carbon price escalation. Recommendations for future research include developing additional scenarios with different assumptions, adopting a multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) approach to stakeholder responses, evaluating the effectiveness of recently implemented renewable energy, EV, and climate policies by the NT Government, and developing an NT-specific LEAP modelling tool as NT data becomes more available.

Abstract:
Barriers to renewable energy development in the past have been identified as high upfront costs with challenges around equity and debt financing, as well as limited legal frameworks and limited regulatory support. Although it is noted that barriers to development are country specific, as well as the solutions to overcome such barriers. Policy measures implemented in various countries to support renewable energy have been seen to have a marked impact on its development. The renewable energy industry in Australia is showing unprecedented growth with a drastic change in the energy landscape expected in the future, should all proposed developments come to fruition. Renewable energy in Australia is currently in its infancy though. It is expected that the planned integration of all the proposed developments in the National Electricity Market will result in certain barriers to development emerging at higher levels of integration. Australia's energy policy has taken significant steps to supporting the deployment of cleaner generation technologies, although hurdles at federal and state level have in the past frustrated the development of renewable energy. The history and status quo of renewable energy development in Australia has been investigated. The current framework and support structures in place as well as potential barriers have been reviewed. A qualitative investigation utilising a single case study approach was selected as the research method. The case investigated was the renewable energy division of a leading global engineering consultancy operating in Australia. The participants of the study included the senior management staff in the renewable energy division of the company. Standard open-ended interviews were conducted. The data was analysed by employing a method of pattern matching. The observed data from the interview process was analysed and compared against the expected pattern which had emerged from the literature. Potential barriers and support strategies have been outlined as a conclusion to the study. The study found federal energy policy to be favourable, but not vital for continued growth of RE development. It was acknowledged that a focus on grid infrastructure would be vital to avoid constricting asset development. The development of Renewable Energy Zones was considered a favourable strategy to overcoming barriers identified, although it was noted that community acceptance would be a significant consideration. Gas generation may form part of the future energy mix, but will be dependent on price and emergent technology. Pumped hydro power is expected to be an important compliment to renewable energy in future, to assist in addressing the technical barriers associated with high levels of non-synchronous generation in the network. A reform of the NEM may also be required to cater for a scenario of a significant penetration of renewable energy and is a topic recommended for future research.

Abstract:
There is significant potential for improved energy efficiency outcomes in Australia due to the existence of energy efficiency barriers, with a targeted improvement in Australia’s primary energy intensity of 30% (by 2020) being ambitious but achievable. In particular, there is considerable energy savings available from industry (potentially 10.7% of Australia’s annual energy use). This dissertation aimed to explore Australia’s implemented energy efficiency policies for industry and benchmark these policies against global best practise to determine whether any improvements are required. The research methodology included a desktop review of literature and analysis of related quantitative and qualitative data. Australia’s EEO program, which has been internationally recognised as a leading edge policy for addressing industrial energy management shortfalls, is by far it’s most effective and comprehensive energy efficiency policy for industry as it has resulted in considerable energy savings and net financial benefits for industry in Australia as well as encouraging corporate and government collaboration. The policy gap analysis undertaken suggests that improvements for Australia’s industrial energy efficiency policy portfolio, include: • Energy Management: Use of the international energy management standard, consideration of voluntary agreements or corporate energy efficiency targets and measures which recognise excellent energy performance of individual corporations. • MEPs for Industrial Equipment: Extending and introducing more stringent MEPS for electric motors as well as introducing measures (MEPs or efficiency labelling) for packaged integrated electric motor driven systems and components. National test procedures should be required and other supportive policies to optimise electric motor driven systems should be considered. • Complementary Financial Policies: Australia’s existing carbon price and associated energy efficiency funding/financing will mostly likely not continue in the future and therefore Australia should ensure that other complementary financial policies are introduced or continued (a national white certificate scheme should be introduced, measures which promote energy performance contracting activities should be developed and a national measurement and verification protocol should be adopted). • Governance: To ensure a coherent energy efficiency strategy, Australia should establish a national governmental body which focusses only on energy efficiency and. Australia should also commit to a national energy savings target of 30% by 2020.

Abstract:
The introduction of competition to electricity markets has been a priority of energy policy in Australia for over 20 years. Throughout this process, economic efficiency objectives have had explicit primacy over social or environmental objectives. Neoliberalism, or economic rationalism as it is often referred to in Australia, not only radically changed the provision of electricity from the 1990s but recast the provision of welfare services by transferring many services from provision by government to provision by ‘private welfare agencies’. Energy policy and social policy can therefore be seen to have been placed on similar paths towards market-based provision of service to households. Importantly this has shifted many frontline responsibilities away from governments to energy retailers and community sector organisations. The electricity market’s consumer safety net has been described as a shared responsibility between industry, governments and community sector organisations. This shared responsibility represents the intersection of energy policy and social policy in Australia akin to fuel poverty policies internationally. However, this intersection is ill-defined and not systemically governed. The key role of community sector organisations in particular is rarely formalised. This research represents the first attempt to develop a coordinated national policy framework for the consumer safety net of Australia’s National Electricity Market. The research question that this thesis seeks to answer is: • When considering a consumer safety net for consumers in a liberalised electricity market, what is an appropriate analytical framework for policy and practice that can be used by stakeholders to improve governance and consumer outcomes? • Subsequently, what priorities emerge from this framework that could be advanced through the policy cycle? In response, this thesis provides a comprehensive, structured review and analysis of the relationship between energy policy and social policy at a time when electricity pricing is undergoing significant changes in terms of structures (tariff reform) and upward pressure as a result of climate change policies and the development of a natural gas export industry. - 4 - The theory and practice of public policy analysis is summarised and guides the structure of the thesis. The research argues for a systematic approach based on the pursuit of 5 public policy outcomes that reflect the interaction between household energy bills and energy, climate and social policies: ● Stable and Efficient Pricing AND ● Informed and engaged consumers AND ● Energy consumed efficiently and productively AND ● Robust consumer protections AND ● All households have a capacity to pay their energy bills This thesis provides context in Chapters 1 and 2 then a chapter is dedicated to each of the five policy outcomes. In each case, the research and analysis is presented in four parts that represent key stages of a policy cycle, the way in which public policy evolves over time: a review of the current arrangements; analysis to identify key issues; empirical analysis and; policy formulation. Consequently, priority policy issues are identified, and recommendations made in the concluding chapter.

Abstract:
AbstractSocial scientists study many different types of networks, from policy networks to sociotechnical networks, in order to better understand processes of change. These diverse networks have a number of characteristics in common, including interconnectedness, flows, and fragility. Exploring these characteristics in relation to smart grids helps us to better understand the social nature of energy sector innovation. In this chapter, I use these themes and concepts to assess three examples: international smart grid policy networks; a local community network on Bruny Island, Australia; and a fragile network, the digital metering programme in the State of Victoria, Australia.

Abstract:
AbstractStories pervade society and play a role in helping us to simplify and make sense of new innovations such as smart grids. Narratives are useful to study not only because of the things, people and organisations that they speak to but also because of the things that are not said—the silences. There are many narratives about smart grids and in this chapter I explore three examples: a global industry narrative about households and their willingness to participate in smart grids; a narrative of policy failure about a smart grid project in the State of Victoria, Australia; and narratives that compete with smart grids, including the hydrogen economy and off-grid energy futures.

Abstract:
Abstract Historically in Australia, mixed Construction and Demolition waste, and Commercial and Industrial waste has been traditionally landfilled. As environmental impacts of landfilling is becoming more evident New South Wales policy makers and innovators have begun exploring an incineration strategy to use such waste to generate electricity. The objective of this study is to utilise life cycle assessment to evaluate GHG emissions from this waste treatment strategy and the environmental impact of a case study facility, in Sydney Australia. The system boundary includes the thermal treatment of waste through incineration, the electricity generation from the steam turbine and air pollution control processes involved within. The functional unit is based on 1 tonne of input mixed Construction and Demolition waste and Commercial and Industrial waste. GHG emissions are calculated and the result shows that the facility generates 0.994 MWh/tonne waste and 1.16 tCO2e/MWh electricity. This emission is lower than a brown coal fired powerplant emission factor 1.31 tCO2e/MWh. The results from this study assists understanding and policy making for the future of Energy-from-Waste as part of the generation mix in New South Wales, Australia.

Abstract:
The optimum tilt angle of a photovoltaic (PV) system was found by varying it between 9° and 49° at 5–10° increment over a period of three months and recording the output of the five different technologies installed. These technologies included mono-crystalline, poly-crystalline, HIT, thin film CdS/CdTe and thin film CIS modules. The yield and efficiency of these modules were determined experimentally and also by the SAM (Solar Advisor Model) computer software; these results correlated with each other to within ±15% with R2 = 0.72 (R = 0.85). This correlation improved when a longer period of time was considered in the simulations. An optimisation study found that the optimum fixed tilt angle was 31.8° for all technologies except thin film CIS modules for which the optimum angle was 27.9°. Furthermore, the yield of another PV system was recorded from April 2010 to July 2011 and compared with its prediction by the SAM simulations. It was found that there was an excellent agreement between the two sets of data. An optimisation study using SAM found that the increase in annual predicted energy generation as a result of changing the tilt of the panels from the current fixed value of 25° to the optimised tilt angle of 31.8° was only 1.1%. A similar optimisation study for a third PV system found that the increase in energy generation predicted after changing the tilt angle from 10°-12° to their optimum tilt angle was 1.9%. The optimum tilt angles found in this study were in good agreement with previous studies reported in the literature.

Abstract:
This paper examines renewable energy developments on Aboriginal lands in North-West Western Australia at three scales. It first examines the literature developing in relation to large scale renewable energy projects and the Native Title Act (1993)Cwlth. It then looks to the history of small community scale standalone systems. Finally, it examines locally adapted approaches to benefit sharing in remote utility owned networks. In doing so this paper foregrounds the importance of Aboriginal agency. It identifies Aboriginal decision making and economic inclusion as being key to policy and project development in the 'scaling up' of a transition to renewable energy resources in the North-West.

Lucas, Brian. Behaviour Change Interventions for Energy Efficiency. Institute of Development Studies, September 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2022.138.

Abstract:
Behavioural interventions are policies and programmes that incorporate insights from scientists who study human behaviour (such as psychology and behavioural economics), with the aim of encouraging socially desirable behaviours by removing barriers and creating incentives or disincentives (Cornago, 2021). Very few behavioural interventions for energy efficiency have been documented in Eastern Europe and the Western Balkans, and none in North Macedonia. The limited experience that has been documented in the region consists of a few small trials which used behavioural principles to inform households about approaches to energy conservation, but none of these trials have demonstrated a significant effect on behaviour. Behavioural interventions have been widely used elsewhere in the world, particularly in North America, Western Europe, and Australia, and there are many studies evaluating their impacts in these regions (Andor & Fels, 2018, p. 182). This report focuses primarily on household energy efficiency, and particularly on the most widespread and well-documented interventions, which are those related to providing feedback on energy consumption and labelling consumer goods. Although behavioural interventions have been shown to produce significant impacts and to be cost-effective in many situations, the available evidence has some limitations. Many examples that have been documented are small-scale trials or pilot projects; large-scale, institutionalised policy interventions based on behavioural insights are rare (Users TCP and IEA, 2020, p. 22). In many studies, experiments with small sample sizes and short durations show larger impacts than larger and longer-term studies, suggesting that pilot studies may over-estimate the savings that might be achieved by large-scale programmes (Andor & Fels, 2018, p. 182; Erhardt-Martinez et al., 2010, p. iv). The amount of energy saved by behavioural interventions is often fairly small and varies widely from one programme to another, suggesting that the effectiveness of these interventions may be highly dependent on local context and on details of design and implementation. Finally, many studies rely on participants reporting their intentions, and on hypothetical rather than actual purchasing decisions, and some studies have found a divergence between stated intentions and actual behaviour (Grünig et al., 2010, p. 41; Users TCP and IEA, 2020, pp. 75–76; Yang et al., 2015, pp. 21–22).
