Business Renewable Centre Australia Supporting Partner

For Australian organisations, a business-as-usual electricity purchasing model is no longer a smart or low-risk business strategy.

Wholesale and retail electricity prices have increased significantly across Australia in recent years due to a range of market factors. Electricity costs have become highly volatile and the future is hard to predict. Meanwhile, renewable energy prices have fallen significantly, and are expected to continue to fall.

Driven by a desire to hedge against these factors, to demonstrate leadership and to improve social licence to operate, more and more Australian organisations are procuring renewable energy. Australia’s energy market is complex and navigating the options can be challenging. BRC-A exists to improve business understanding about renewable energy procurement options and how best to meet corporate sustainability and financial goals.
