Generation Transmission Distribution
With falling demand and
consumption combined with
greater distributed
generation there is an
excess of generation
capacity to leverage.
AEMO forecast no new
generation required for 10
years yet mandatory
renewable targets and
Feed In Tariffs still exist
Powerlink advise that
without further
augmentation, there is
sufficient capacity to
support additional load in
North Queensland
equivalent to the Townsville
area. The North West is not
part of the NEM.
Distribution Network is not
effectively utilised,
impacted by reduced
consumption, security &
reliability standards
