为实现到2020年太阳能电力占全州总电力的5%，维多利亚州政府将通过各种措施加快本区太阳能电站的发展。
“维多利亚的这个未来可持续发展的承诺要求维多利亚新建5至10个跨区域太阳能电站。”维多利亚总理John Brumby表示，“为了尽早实现这一目标，政府将加快审批程序，并提供这一战略发展所需土地。”
Brumby已要求区域和农村发展部长Jacinta Allan评估政府和市政府拥有的可用于发展太阳能的土地。
“很明显，州政府和地方政府都持有的适合太阳能发展的土地，”他说，“政府提供这些土地，能够加快本州太阳能产业的发展。”
作为快速发展过程的一部分，Brumby还宣布，政府靠近Mildura的Nowingi地区的土将提供给一个新的太阳能设施，这一决定将为开发人员提供利益，受到了社会各界的广泛支持。
新的太阳能发展目标和实施措施已成为维多利亚州政府即将颁布的气候变化白皮书的重要部分部分。
The Victorian Government will fast track applications for new solar stations in regional Victoria, in response to the recent announcement to increase Victoria's electricity supply from solar power to 5 per cent by 2020.
"This commitment to a sustainable future for Victoria should see the establishment of between five and 10 large solar plants across regional Victoria," says Victorian Premier John Brumby. "In order to achieve our target as early as possible, the Government will fast track the approval processes and make land available at strategic locations across the state to assist with development."
Brumby has had asked Regional and Rural Development Minister Jacinta Allan to assess government and municipal owned land that could be suitable for solar developments.
"State and local governments have significant land holdings that may be suitable for solar developments," he says.
"Making this land available will speed up developments and bring on more solar power faster."
As part of the fast tracking process, Brumby also announced that government land at Nowingi, near Mildura, would be made available for a new solar facility, subject to developer interest and community support.
The new solar target and the measures announced to fast track approvals for new developments formed part of the Victorian Government's Climate Change White Paper, to be released soon.
