A recent report says NSW will need to approve nearly 7.5GW more in wind and solar farms to meet targeted emissions reduction goals by 2030. State less than halfway to goal, report suggests, adding to challenges for federal government’s 82% renewable energy target for grid by end of decade.

New South Wales has the largest gap between its 2030 emissions reduction goals and the present pace of renewables rollout among the states, a performance that will make it harder for Australia to meet national goals unless addressed, a new report argues. Markets, said NSW’s legislated electricity infrastructure roadmap indicates the state would need to generate 33,600 gigawatt hours of renewable energy from projects in place by the end of 2029. On this score, NSW was less than halfway to its goal with forecast output from projects already committed or contracted at about 12,911GWh as of the end of 2023
