Join us for a webinar on 11 September 2025, where we will explore the important initial issues facing renewables projects under Queensland’s new renewables planning framework.

The presentation will cover:

  • an overview of the framework’s key characteristics, risks and opportunities
  • essential legal requirements and other considerations for designing and undertaking social impact assessment and negotiating community benefit agreements
  • important issues in the application of the new framework, including changes affecting existing wind or solar farm approvals and integrated BESS
  • interaction of the planning reforms with property issues, including landowner option agreements, landowner consent to CBAs and rehabilitation obligations.

This insightful session is presented by Mark Cowan and Kathy Prince, special counsel in CGW’s renewables team. With decades of combined experience, they specialise in advising proponents and governments on renewable energy projects, including planning, environment, land access and property matters .

The webinar will be recorded, so, if you are unable to attend at the advertised time, we will send you the live recording for future viewing.

We look forward to your joining the discussion.
