Outcome #1: Facilitate increased flows of finance into Australia's clean energy sector and facilitate the achievement of Australia's greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets, by investing in renewable energy (including finance to upgrade, expand and modernise Australia's electricity grid), low emissions and energy efficiency technologies, building industry capacity, and disseminating information to industry stakeholders
# Program Body Contribution
1.1 Australian Renewable Energy Agency Program 1.1 Australian Renewable Energy Agency

The Australian Renewable Energy Agency and the Corporation work closely on the Clean Energy Innovation Fund (CEIF), drawing on their complementary experience and expertise. The CEIF has made available $200 million capital for investment in emerging clean energy projects and businesses, targeting projects at the later end of the innovation chain while delivering a financial return to taxpayers, in addition to the public good of commercialising and improving the competitiveness of renewable energy and related technologies.
