If wind energy is this cheap, why aren’t wind farms being built?
Australia’s biggest wind farm is producing electricity at less than $80/MWh. At current prices, the market for new wind projects should be strong. But political uncertainty from Abbott government is killing the market.

Things we learned this week about Abbott’s wind turbine syndrome
Abbott is not listening to the Pope, or scientists, about climate science or wind farms. But he is listening to IPA and other long term anti-wind activists. IPA even gives a “how to” guide for Catholics to ignore Pope Francis. Meanwhile, Hunt says it’s all about pushing big solar.

Abbott government says war on renewables not over yet
The Abbott government may be in its death throes, but it is still determined to do as much damage to the renewable energy industry as it can. It still wants to cut the RET by one third, and dump agencies such as the CEFC and ARENA, and now it is targeting solar.

Infigen calls bluff on utility threats to ‘boycott’ wind, solar
Infigen calls bluff on utility threats to “boycott” renewable energy, but suggests corporate Australia may fill the gap if retailers don’t contract new wind and solar farms. Meanwhile, the market turns positive on renewables, even if the government is still stalling on the RET, while Infigen turns focus to the US solar market.
