    Fraser fears Abbott at mercy of fossil fuel lobby on renewables

    Climate Change Authority chairman Bernie Fraser said he fears Abbott government would be swayed by the fossil fuel lobby’s attack on renewables, and dilute the LRET. He decries the short term nature of policy making, and explains why the CCA made its decision to shunt commercial solar PV into the capped large scale renewable energy target.

    Climate authority gives green light for boom in big renewables

    The Climate Change Authority says the 41,000GWh target for large-scale renewables should remain – paving the way for a massive build-out of wind farms, and eventually solar farms. But the CCA has fiddled with the rooftop solar component, and that could be bad news for commercial scale solar PV.
