The Board
The Net Zero Emissions and Clean Economy Board is no longer operational. The Net Zero Commission is expected to be established over the next month under the Climate Change (Net Zero Future) Act 2023. The role of the independent Commission will be to monitor, review, report on and advise on whole of government progress towards the emission reduction targets for NSW.
The Net Zero Emissions and Clean Economy Board advised the NSW Government on the implementation of the state’s Net Zero Plan to achieve 70% emissions reduction by 2035 and net zero by 2050. The Board provided advice on the design of Net Zero programs and policies, opportunities for low emissions research and strategies to support existing industries to decarbonise.
The Board was established under the Energy and Utilities Administration Regulation 2021, and the Government announced the Board’s members in December 2021. The Board met 22 times between February 2022 and May 2024.
