The City of Sydney is building its plan for a low carbon future … but how can a single jurisdiction go it alone and challenge bad policies and weak regulations that are stopping real climate action?
In partnership with the City of Sydney, Green Capital will bring together influential voices from the Council, environment movement, utilities, the new energy services industry, smart grid researchers, and the property industry to find out:
• the political impact on state and national policy
• the practicality of ambitious targets
• the blocking effect of National Electricity Market rules
• the readiness or otherwise of big business to move beyond opposing action and worrying about costs and reliability of supply
• the impacts of change on small consumers - residents and SMEs
