Over a million homes to get renewable energy in deal between federal and state governments

One million homes in NSW could be powered by renewable energy and more electricity could flow to South Australia and Western Australia, under a deal struck between the federal and state governments. The deal is part of the taxpayer-funded Capacity Investment Scheme, unveiled by the Commonwealth in November.

"The rain doesn't always fall, but we always have water on tap because we store it for when we need it — our energy plan does just the same thing for reliable renewables." Tenders for six gigawatts of renewable energy will open in May, with a minimum of 2.2 gigawatts allocated to NSW. SA will receive at least 300 megawatts of renewable energy, although the federal government said this was subject to a final agreement.
