Abbott still determined to kill RET, Silex, ARENA pull funds for big fish solar project; RET repeal amounts to economic vandalism; RET cut would hit budget; Courts worldwide reject anti-wind experts and their evidence; Oz Technology competition finalists announced; G20 has crucial role in preventing future energy crisis; and a clean energy miracle – my challenge to Bill Gates.

A new report from AFR underlines the determination of the Abbott government to kill renewable energy in Australia. This comes as a new report says coal and gas generators will pocket an extra $10bn in profits if the RET is scrapped.
Silex dumps proposal for 100MW concentrated solar power plant in Mildura, citing uncertainty over RET as one factor. It will now look overseas.
The Government’s own independent Review Panel finding that the RET helps to reduce power bills for electricity consumers over the medium term.
Reducing the RET would cost the federal budget about $680 million more to meet Australia’s target of 5% emissions reduction by 2020.
The EPI just published a full report of my research into anti-wind court cases in the USA, Canada, the British Isles, Australia and New Zealand.
14 of Australia’s best emerging technology companies have been named as Finalists for the 2014 Australian Technologies Competition.
The set of rules that govern world energy markets have not kept pace with the transformations in energy markets that are now happening ever more rapidly.
There are only a few people in the world that could actually generate a true clean energy miracle and Bill Gates is one of them.
