Welcome to the Energy Policy Institute

Details

The Institute is Australia's only apolitical, not-for-profit, energy policy body.

It provides a mechanism by which all stakeholders in Australian energy may collaborate on risks and concerns impacting on energy finance, production, supply and export, where those risks may not have been fully addressed by existing industry organisations.

It acknowledges all environmental concerns as well as the paramount interest of the public in having access to reliable, affordable and clean energy.
