Submission to Treasury's Climate Disclosure Unit

The CEC welcomes Treasury’s bill to mandate climate-related financial disclosures and the initial framework. A clear framework compelling companies to assess and disclose their climate-related financial risks can play a key role in both preventing system-wide problems in Australia’s financial systems and can also support adequate and affordable capital flows into the clean energy industries.

The CEC encourages Treasury to consider some final refinements on the final bill, as outlined below, along with ongoing engagement and consultation with the clean energy industry following initial implementation and as part of continuous improvement of reporting regimes.

Submission on the AER's Draft Export Limit Interim Guidance Note

Flexible export limits provide the opportunity to manage network capacity, maximising the ability of the network to carry local generation whilst reducing the need for investment in poles and wires. The CEC supports the work produced by the AER to create clear guidance on expectations required by Distribution Network Service Providers (DNSPs) for successful flexible export uptake by consumers. We offer several recommendations to improve the impact the proposed Guidance Note will have in supporting and building consumer trust in flexible exports.
