Climate Change Fund Annual Report

The NSW Climate Change Fund was established on 1 July 2007 under the Energy and Utilities Administration Act 1987 to support households, businesses, communities and government in saving water, energy and greenhouse gas emissions.

This is the fourth Annual Report for the NSW Climate Change Fund, covering the 2010-2011 financial year of operations. In 2010-2011, the Fund expended $63 million to help households, businesses, communities and government save water, power and greenhouse gas emissions and reduce water and energy utility bills. This funding has also stimulated investment in clean energy technologies in NSW, through funding for the commercialisation of emerging technologies and additional support for proven technologies such as wind and solar power.

In 2010-11, the Fund also provided $82 million to other programs, including the Coal Innovation NSW Fund, national energy market projects and communication projects, as well as fund administration. It has also provided $138 million to the Solar Bonus Scheme to support households and small businesses to adopt renewable energy technologies.

To 30 June 2011, an estimated 19.8 billion litres of water, 924,000 megawatt hours of electricity, 992,000 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions and $200 million on water and power bills a year, as well as 67,000 kilowatts of peak demand has been saved. On average, every $1 the Fund invests in energy and water saving initiatives delivers more than $5 in utility bill savings.
