The New South Wales (NSW) government has revamped its climate policy to halve emissions by 2030 amid worries the transition could subvert energy security if planned improperly.

NSW initially set forth to reduce emissions below 2005 levels by 35 percent. But it has since upped the target with priorities on accelerating its renewable energy rollout alongside investments in low emissions technologies.
