Navigating the Future of Energy in the Riverina and Murray

The energy landscape across the Riverina and Murray regions is currently undergoing a profound transformation, impacting everything from local council operations to individual households. As we move towards 2032, the Riverina and Murray Joint Organisation (RAMJO) is committed to ensuring this transition delivers equity, access, and reliability for all residents.

 While our region is now a primary site for large-scale renewable energy generation, significant challenges remain. Paradoxically, despite being the “engine room” for New South Wales’ new power supply, many of our communities still suffer from unreliable supply and limited capacity, which can hinder local development.

 RAMJO’s 2025 Regional Energy Strategy (RES) outlines a roadmap to address these imbalances.

 The purpose of the 2025 RAMJO Regional Energy Strategy. Improving equity, access and reliability for the RAMJO area is to assist the Councils, communities and businesses within RAMJO to: 

✓ Understand the changes in the energy landscape 

✓Take advantage wherever possible of those changes 

✓ Become more self-sufficient and resilient around energy 

✓ Identify ways to reduce costs related to energy, and 

✓ In the process, reduce emissions which contribute to climate change and have adversely affected the region.
