Future Energy Planning

Picture
Originally an initiative of the Northern Alliance for Greenhouse Action and the Eastern Alliance for Greenhouse Action, the Future Energy Planning project seeks to build better links between electricity networks and local government.

Currently, electricity network planning and land-use planning currently occur in isolation, meaning long term, viable and sustainable options for integrating demand and supply side opportunities are missed.
​
The project seeks to enable local governments and Distribution Network Service Providers (DNSP) to work co-operatively on well planned integrated energy solutions by:
  • fostering engagement between Distribution Network Service Providers (DNSPs) and state and local government planners to co-operatively create planned, integrated energy solutions;
  • sharing data and developing resources to identify cross sector planning opportunities in areas of the network that are constrained; and
  • establish a replicable process for the identification of integrated energy solutions not currently supported by the existing regulatory processes.
The final report to Phase 2 of the project is available by clicking the image at left.

Phase 3 is about ongoing engagement between networks and local governments, and each alliance is working with each of the 5 distribution networks across the state to improve collaboration and information sharing.
