I reaffirm our commitment to listening to, and working alongside First Nations Australians... That is why this Government is implementing the first ever First Nations Clean Energy Strategy.

First Nations outcomes are not incidental to energy policy. They can be built into rules, incentives and contracts that shape the clean energy market. First Nations economic participation must be actively supported. reneweconomy.com.au/cis-shows-ho... #auspol #electricity #mobsky #energy #policy

CIS shows how energy policy can deliver for First Nations. ESEM can build on this progress

The ESEM is expected to become Australia's enduring energy investment framework. Like the CIS, its design must continue to support First Nations outcomes.

Sure, this is a great start @robertarnol.bsky.social but it begs the question: given what has happened to First Nations in Australia, why isn't it time to bake in equity/revenue/SOMETHING to every👏single👏deal👏?? #AusPol #cleanenergy #energyjustice

🔆OPPORTUNITY🔆 The federal government is setting aside 500 megawatts (MW) in each of the next Capacity Investment Scheme tenders for clean energy projects that bake-in equity or revenue sharing deals with First Nations groups. reneweconomy.com.au/cis-bakes-in... #auspol #cleanenergy #mobsky

"To qualify, developers will need to partner with First Nations groups with either a minimum 5% equity stake, revenue sharing equal to 5% equity, or both that equals to 5% equity." It'll be interesting to see who talks the talk, and does better by First Nations. fyi @kevinjkircher.com #energysky
