The South Australia Labor government, before entering caretaker mode, announced plans to launch a major competitive tender for new solar, wind, and storage projects if re-elected. They have opened up over 11,000 km of land for renewable energy development under the state's Hydrogen and Renewable Energy Act, aiming to power over half a million homes. The government is laying the foundation for a clean energy boom through a world-first regulatory framework, with parcels of land in key regions identified for potential investment. Extensive consultation with stakeholders is being conducted to ensure social, economic, and environmental considerations are taken into account, with a goal of optimizing renewable energy opportunities while protecting the natural environment and social capital of the regions.
