Climate Minister Chris Bowen is fully backing the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) to accelerate the energy transition. AdvertisementAccording to data from the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis, businesses have installed about 5.6 gigawatts of solar, compared to 22 gigawatts on residential rooftops. Bowen has been spending some of his scarce time devising a gas reservation scheme, having vigorously opposed such an arrangement during the last election campaign. Recall that the Coalition promised to introduce a gas reservation scheme to reduce east coast prices. Bear in mind, WA has had a gas reservation scheme for many years.
