Transitioning from an economy that is heavily reliant on fossil fuel exports to an innovation-driven sustainable economy requires investment in our own industries and people, supported by the effective government policy and leadership.
While it will not be easy, the rewards make the journey worthwhile: cheaper energy, stronger domestic capacity, and economic resilience against global tensions and headwinds.
The policies focus on:
- Removing roadblocks and broadening access to benefits,
- Supporting small-scale transition (households and enterprises),
- Incentivising investment at scale, and
- Responsibly raising revenue
