It’s time for a smarter RET that recognises flexible generation
The RET should be extended, but also adapted to encourage “flexible” capacity that recognises and amplifies the varying time value of generated renewable electricity.

Smart Energy

Devil’s in detail, but Finkel may have gotten it just about right
Let’s forget about coal: Finkel’s Clean Energy Target should be designed to encourage a good mix of zero emissions dispatchable solutions including solar thermal and biomass.

Coal

What do we sell when they don’t want our coal?
If the world is to decarbonise, Australia’s key trading partners of ours must be part of that shift. That means zero emissions hydrogen fuels – powered by wind and solar – replacing coal and gas exports.

Solar thermal (CST) is a mature and available technology that possesses precisely the attributes that people are arguing need to be added or retained in our electricity system.

Concentrating solar power: It’s a good bet for the future
CSP might seem like the proverbial mozzie bite on solar’s backside, but it’s an energy itch worth scratching – for storing energy and producing fuels.
