EUAA Submission: VNI West Consultation Paper – Options Assessment

‘…This submission is short because we believe that the implementation of the NEVA order by the Victorian Government leaves us with virtually no ability to influence the PACR cost benefit analysis. While the NEVA order may speed up the process it does not fill us with confidence that the project will deliver net benefits for […]

NRF & Safeguard Mechanism Working Alongside One Another Will Be Key For Heavy Industry Transition

The National Reconstruction Fund (NRF) and the Safeguard Mechanism legislation that have secured support this week are critical elements that must work together to support the decarbonisation and modernisation of Australia’s manufacturing sector, provided we get the details right, said leading advocate for large commercial and industrial energy users, the Energy Users Association of Australia […]

Our members […]

EUAA Submission: Incorporating An Emissions Reduction Objective Into The NEO

‘After reading the AEMC’s “How the National Energy Objectives Shape Our Decisions”, the inclusion of emission reduction objectives in the national energy laws would appear to have little-to-no impact, as state and federal emissions reduction and climate policies are already considered in all decisions. However, further analysis shows that the most likely impacts for the […]
