    AEMC takes baby steps to future grid, where solar and storage “optimised”

    The great divide over Australia’s energy future

    The energy rule-maker’s dystopian view of our immediate energy future underlines the growing divide on the future of renewables. There are those who see them as key to a smarter, cheaper, cleaner and more reliable grid. And other who simply believe it can’t be done.

    In 2017, regulators should fight for consumers, not incumbents

    Despite predictions that consumers – households and businesses – will be supplying half of all electricity needs within a few decades, the automatic reflex of the institutions that govern our electricity market remains to protect the incumbents. This needs to change.

    Energy market rule-maker says no to real reform – again
