THE State Government yesterday announced $70 million in funding for two climate change and renewable energy programs. Premier Morris Iemma said $40 million would be given to a Renewable Energy Development Program, aimed at encouraging new technologies from the drawing board to the market place. "A low emission future depends on our capacity to generate clean, green energy and this program provides financial backing for new ideas and technologies," Mr Iemma said. Schools, community centres, town halls and other public buildings would also be able to access a $30 million pool of funding for water and energy saving projects.
