NSW will attract $11.6 billion of private investment and create 2400 new jobs under the Berejiklian government's ambitious 10-year plan to reach net zero emissions by 2050.

The plan, the first of its kind in Australia, will drive about two-thirds of the investment to regional and rural NSW and is expected to save households $40 a year on electricity bills.

It will be "the foundation for the state's action on climate change" and will also deliver a 35 per cent emissions reduction from 2005 levels by 2030.
