Submission

PIAC, 350 Australia and Renew provided a joint submission to the Senate Economic Reference Committee Inquiry into Residential Electrification. Our submission strongly supported efficient electrification of Australian homes and demonstrated the necessity of doing so to achieve climate, energy affordability, health and broader economic outcomes.

We highlighted the need for the Commonwealth Government to provide leadership and commitment, and to co-ordinate national action. Leadership from the Commonwealth Government can provide certainty and robust policy signals initiating planning and regulatory reforms, implementation of improved standards, signals and incentives for investment, and implementation and co-ordination of supports to target disadvantaged households.
