The Australian Geothermal Energy Association (AGEA) has sought data from MMA on the predicted costs of a range of generation technologies likely to be operating in the Australian market up to 2030 and beyond utilising its own and globally credible data bases. AGEA has sought cost predictions for the years 2020 and 2030 from the technologies utilising the following energy sources: 1. Geothermal: a. Hot Rocks (with enhanced geothermal systems) b. Projects utilising the heat from hot sedimentary rocks (i.e. as in Victoria). c. Direct heat projects (displacing the need for electricity from fossil fuels in the same units of energy). d. Hydrothermal projects (global average). 2. Wind projects 3. Biomass projects 4. Solar water heaters (SWH) (displacing the need for electricity from fossil fuels in the same units of energy) 5. Solar thermal projects 6. Solar photovoltaic concentrator projects 7. Rooftop photovoltaic 8. Conventional supercritical coal fired boiler 9. Gas, etc.
