Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen outlined Australia's preparations for co-hosting the United Nations climate conference with Turkey in November, a process requiring consensus among 194 nations.1 Bowen emphasized that the country is pursuing ambitious climate goals: reducing emissions by 43 percent from 2005 levels and achieving 82 percent renewable energy by 2030.1
The minister noted that renewable energy generation has increased from 33 percent when the government took office to approximately 50 percent currently.1 On electricity pricing, Bowen indicated that wholesale electricity costs account for roughly 40 percent of consumer bills and predicted that retail prices would gradually reflect the benefits of expanded renewable energy deployment.1 While acknowledging opposition from rural communities to large-scale renewable energy projects, Bowen also recognized that support exists within these regions.1
