South Australia’s Strategic Plan is comprised of 100 targets. These targets are specific and measurable and enable us to measure our progress towards achieving the Plan’s visions and goals.
Each target is reported on through this section of the website. Data is analysed and uploaded as it becomes available.
Target:
66. Emissions intensity:Limit the carbon intensity of total South Australian electricity generation to 0.5 tonnes of CO2/MWh by 2020
Key Measure
Target History
Currently, in comparison to the rest of the world, Australia has relatively dirty power generation.
It is the intention of South Australia to, along with growing the renewable energy sector, limit our carbon intensity of electricity generation, thereby positioning ourselves as the clean state. Stakeholders, including the Commissioner for Renewable Energy support the inclusion of this target.
Previous Target Progress
This is a new target.
