Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c20356) has announced the addition of Regulations and Policies securing the Future for Australian Energy Market (2005-2020)
to their offering.
The market research report "Regulations and Policies securing the future for Australian Energy Market (2005-2020)" gives a comprehensive picture of the Australian energy industry and the
policies that regulate it. The report primarily looks at the overall energy consumption in Australia along with the environmental effects like, green house emissions, and the aggregate
energy consumption by the end-user by the source of energy.
The connection between the state-based transmission systems and regulatory framework is highlighted. The report focuses on the reforms that have lead to the industry growth, trade and
consumption. There have been a number of factors that have lead to a sustained growth of the Australian economy and lifestyle like, high labor and general productivity, and environmental
conditions. The Australian energy resources have been providing low-cost energy for the country and have also helped in generating sizeable export income. Along with energy generation,
the Australian policies have been implemented in such a manner that the domestic and global environmental issues are taken into account.
The annual expenditure on energy comes to approximately $50 billion in Australia, whereas the export of energy resources comes to approximately $24 billion. Huge capital investments such
as setting up of electricity plants, oil and gas production facilities, refineries, wind farms, pipelines, coal, transmission lines, and wholesale and distribution sites are required. The
present energy sector scenario in Australia is guided by the Australian Government's objective to ensure that the people have access to competitively priced energy while optimization of
the available resources. In fact, the environmental issues are also well managed to meet the future demands that are expected to increase by 50% by 2020.
Australia has been a prime net energy exporter since 1993, but has witnessed a decrease in its revenue from the sector. The other major exports from Australia have been LNG, refined gold,
aluminum, alumina, crude oil, iron ore, coking coal, steel, manganese, and iron. The decreasing earning from the exports will be regulated by the third quarter of 2005 by the reformation
and regulatory changes that have been implemented by the Australian Government. Yet, there are a few problems that need to be taken into consideration by the Australian Government like,
transportation of fuel and fuel products and the competitiveness of the energy sector.
Report Highlights:
- Australia's energy resources, energy consumption, and export markets.
- Long-term (2019-20) outlook for Australian energy supply and demand at national and state level.
- Key statistics on Australia's energy consumption, production, and trade from 1973-74 to 2003-04.
- The viability of developing bio fuel industry in Australia.
- Prospects for and impediments to gas market competition.
- Gas supply and demand balances in eastern Australia.
- Changes in the Mandatory Renewable Energy Target (MRET) scheme.
- Recent trends in energy intensities and the potential for energy efficiency improvements.
Report Features:
The market research report "Regulations and Policies securing the future for Australian Energy Market (2005-2020)" provides an in-dept analysis of the energy demands, estimates, and
recent energy trends in Australia. The report will be of assistance to the policy and decision makers so that they can lead the Australian energy industry better in the years to come.
