Speed of Australia’s energy transition hostage to Marshall law
Election of Steve Marshall – and expectation he will be a vassal of Coalition in Canberra – likely to do more damage to country’s renewable energy transition than that of his state. Jay Weatherill will be missed, but he leaves SA with huge momentum.

Is there anything good to say about NEG? New report says no
