2025 Policy Priorities
Energy & Innovation

​SACOME calls on the South Australian Government to focus on measures that provide certainty to industry, increase system stability, and lower costs while assisting industry in the process of decarbonisation.

Independent analysis commissioned by SACOME in 2023 confirmed that South Australia’s energy transition has cost hundreds of millions in system security costs, market interventions, infrastructure upgrades and energy transition measures since 2016, with costs continuing to escalate1.

These costs continue to be disproportionately borne by industry.
​
Affordable and reliable power remains critical to the economic viability and continued operation of commercial and industrial operators in South Australia.

Energy Transition White Paper
SACOME calls for release of the South Australian Government’s Energy Transition White Paper as a priority action.

Furthermore, SACOME continues to champion the importance of strategic and coordinated energy policy development on behalf of its members.

Nuclear Readiness
SACOME calls upon the South Australian Government to allocate funding for upskilling of South Australian regulators to ensure jurisdictional readiness for implementation of nuclear energy.
​
Nuclear energy offers a zero-emissions energy source with the ability to provide reliable and dispatchable baseload power in extremely large quantities.
