Scheme overview
WA Power and Gas - 2016 4
Renewable Energy Target
• encourages small-scale renewable energy system installations
• uncapped
• does not contribute to the 2020 target
Small-scale Large-scale
• encourages new investment in large-scale renewable energy
• 33 million megawatt hours of additional renewable electricity from renewable sources by 2020

Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme
Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme
• Almost 2.5 million installations since 2011
• Average system size increasing
• Average system size for WA 4.63kW in 2015
• 2016 install data for WA shows strong start to the year

Conclusion
Small-scale
• WA currently in the mid-field for nationwide installs
• Installation data shows WA trending toward the lower end on commercial and industrial systems
Large-scale
• No activity in WA in utility scale power station under the LRET for many years
• Opportunity with a strong LGC price signal and 1,255 MW of projects with planning approval
