The Framework includes a suite of guidelines and tools that will support the Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap and emissions reduction targets.
It includes five new and updated guidelines:
* Wind Energy Guidelines – provides advice on planning considerations relevant to wind energy development, including visual impacts, site selection and decommissioning.
* Transmission Guidelines – addresses route selection, community consultation expectations and visual impact assessment.
* Solar Energy Guidelines – revisions to the existing guideline to provide additional advice on decommissioning and incorporate other aspects of the Framework.
* Benefit Sharing Guidelines – encourages equitable and sustainable distribution of benefits to local communities. (Note: this includes BESS, wind and solar)
* Private Agreement Guidelines – advises landholders and renewable energy developers on key considerations when negotiating commercial agreements for hosting renewable energy projects.
