  • Frydenberg fumes as Weatherill does the vision thing on renewables and storage

    Frydenberg fumes as Weatherill does the vision thing on renewables and storage

    Frydenberg goes to Adelaide and is trumped again by Weatherill’s big vision. Leading analysts say SA Premier stands apart. “At least this man has balls.”

    RET is met, and Frydenberg concedes more wind and solar will lower prices, improve reliability

    New data confirms the 2020 RET will be met well ahead of time, and even energy minister Josh Frydenberg says more wind and solar will cut prices and improve reliability.

    The Turnbull-Frydenberg investment bank: Bullying, cronyism and Captain’s picks

    Despite Finkel, despite our COP 21 obligations, Turnbull does nothing. No electricity policy, no vehicle emission standards, no policy in other areas of the economy. Worst of all, the Liddell negotiations are a gross misuse of the AEMO reports for political purposes.

  • Coalition attempts to rewrite history on support for wind, solar and RET

    Coalition attempts to rewrite history on support for wind, solar and RET

    The Coalition is again feigning selective amnesia about the country’s climate and clean energy policies, and the party’s key role in delivering rising prices and a weakening, less stable electricity system. History tells another story.

    Record $7.5bn renewables spend puts RET well within reach

    Stunning $7.5 billion surge in investment in large scale wind and solar projects means Renewable Energy Target is well within reach, and could be filled by commitments this year.

    Frydenberg says “clean coal” could help Australia meet Paris targets

    Frydenberg guarantees RET support, but it’s ultra-super-critical coal that has his attention, and he says it may help Australia meet Paris climate targets.

    Finkel to lead NEM review, but states hold to renewable targets

    Alan Finkel to lead a review of Australia’s electricity market, but states hold to individual renewable targets after Coalition failed to offer a post 2020 target. Battery storage a major focus.

    Coalition launches fierce attack against wind and solar after blackout

    Ideology rules as Coalition, One Nation and Xenophon use South Australia blackout as an excuse to launch new attack on wind and solar. Turnbull and Frydenberg repeat call for Labor states to cancel “unrealistic” renewable targets.
