Emissions Reduction

Queensland’s challenge is to reduce emissions at the least cost to society, (including both economic and social costs). The competitiveness of Queensland’s economy has been built on reliable access to low-cost energy. Emissions reductions need to be achieved without threatening Queensland’s industrial competitiveness. Producing new economy minerals is likely to be energy intensive, meaning Queensland needs a stable energy policy, ideally an integrated national policy, to provide investment certainty and remain globally competitive.
