  • A rule change on transmission losses for wind and solar farms could save   billions for consumers
    Commentary

    A rule change on transmission losses for wind and solar farms could save billions for consumers

    A ruling that effectively charges wind and solar farms for twice actual transmission losses represents a large risk to developers of new generation assets, and consumers.

    Ausgrid looks to community batteries, getting “closer” to consumers

    Networks have gone from raising the drawbridge to lowering it, inviting new technologies and ideas on to their platform. Soon they’ll be competing for the consumer.

    AEMO chief says clinging to old energy business models is “insane”

    New head of AEMO says South Australia’s system black was a wake up call for all in the energy industry, and says holding on to old business models is “insane”. She is also pushing for changes in market rules, including 5-minute settlement, which she says will make solar and wind “highly predictable.”

    ACCC says it’s OK for big utilities to exploit market power

    ACCC says it’s perfectly OK for big utilities to exercise their market power and force up prices, as they did to devastating effect in South Australia last month. And although the regulator identified the lack of competition in the state a decade ago, it still chooses to take a pot-shot at renewables.
