Media briefing for the announcement of the draft IRP and IEP for public consultation

The Department of Energy cordially invites members of the media to the announcement of the Draft Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) and Integrated Energy Plan (IEP) documents. The Cabinet Decision of 2 November 2016 directed the Department to release the two documents for public consultation.

The IEP aims to guide future energy infrastructure investments over the period up to 2050, and identify and recommend policy options to shape the future energy landscape of the country. The IRP serves to guide government’s plan for electricity provision within the energy mix.
