The Regional Energy Accord process is supported by The Energy Charter, a CEO-led collaboration of energy organisations across Australia committed to better outcomes for customers and communities.
Three layers of governance guide the Regional Energy Accord:
- Community Outcomes Group – Trusted local leaders from community, regional development, agriculture, First Nations, small business who stay involved nationally across all Roundtables to turn ideas into action.
- Industry Impact Group – Energy sector leaders nationally across the supply chain aligning investment and operations with regional community priorities.
- CEO Council – CEOs from over 30 energy organisations listening to regional voices and leading change inside their organisations.
The process is independently facilitated by regional leader, Bryce Ives ensuring conversations are grounded in trust, fairness and genuine collaboration.
If you’re participating in a Roundtable then you’ll be in the room with regional leaders from agriculture, education, health, First Nations, industry, local government and more. Together we will:
- Test and build on what’s come from the process so far, from Gippsland, North-East Victoria + Wimmera Southern Mallee, together with NSW regions.
- Identify what matters most to your and your region and explore how the Regional Energy Accord can support your region in transitioning from good to better – to continue making the energy transition fairer, trusted and locally led.
- Shape the first version of the Regional Energy Accord to reflect your region’s values, priorities and ideas for action.
What you contribute will directly inform the national framework of the Regional Energy Accord, one that will be tested, refined and strengthened by bringing together the story of the energy transition across regional Australia.
