Australia: Potential Funding Plot receives interest from 40GW of solar and wind energy

Latest
Australia’s minister for Climate Alternate and Energy Chris Bowen published this day (24 June) that the major public sale of the Potential Funding Plot (CIS) has received interest from extra than 40GW of solar and wind initiatives.
Penned in an thought fragment for the Australian Financial Overview, Bowen dilapidated this figure to attack the Coalition’s most modern pledge to construct seven nuclear reactors to improve the nation’s decarbonisation whisk. Alternatively, Bowen believes that the interest surrounding the CIS presentations an urge for meals to develop renewable energy technology ability.

“The major public sale of the CIS, which is able to improve 6GW of most modern vitality, has received extra than 40GW of mission registrations, showing there could be a solid pipeline of renewables prepared to pass with the beautiful coverage settings,” Bowen acknowledged in the article.
The nation’s ‘ideally suited single ideally suited renewables refined in historical past’
The Albanese government presented the expanded CIS in November 2023, desiring to underwrite 32GW price of renewable energy technology and energy storage ability. In April 2024, it acknowledged it’d be the “ideally suited single renewables refined in the nation’s historical past”.
At the time, Chris Bowen, additionally published that the Albanese government and the government of Fresh South Wales (NSW) would work together to shut a “single blended refined course of for technology infrastructure under the CIS and NSW Roadmap from November this twelve months”.
As previously reported by PV Tech, Bowen acknowledged there could possibly well possibly be a 500MW ability refined for initiatives in Western Australia because of open “mid-twelve months”, relying on consultation and closing settlement.
Australia’s PV manufacturing industry receives AUS$100 million improve
Most attention-grabbing week (19 June), the Australian Renewable Energy Company (ARENA) launched its global AUS$100 million (US$66 million) ‘Solar ScaleUp Advise of affairs’ to stimulate innovation and collaboration in the solar sector.
The initiative invites professionals from all the strategy throughout the worldwide solar landscape, such as financiers, solar customers, engineers, and developers, to interrupt down barriers to installing, running, and preserving solar PV initiatives.
This could possibly well possibly fair additionally enable ARENA to work against the imaginative and prescient of its Ultra Low-Trace Solar (ULCS), which argues that a ‘30-30-30’ formula to solar, representing 30% solar module efficiency and an installed cost of 30 cents per watt by 2030, could possibly well possibly support Australia seriously change a renewable energy superpower. This would mean attaining a levelised cost of electrical energy under AUS$20 per megawatt hour by 2030.
FREE WEBINAR -This special webinar will take a deep dive into essentially the most modern PV ModuleTech Bankability Ratings pyramid, shooting the relative bankability state of the tip 70-80 PV module suppliers globally. To boot to to revealing essentially the most modern ranking of world PV module suppliers, PV Tech’s Head of Analysis, Finlay Colville, will note the depth of diagnosis and commentary included all the strategy throughout the epic for module suppliers.
A key output from the webinar can be to be taught which PV module suppliers occupy moved up the rankings pyramid in most modern years and why this improve has been accomplished. Conversely, about a of the companies that occupy fallen down the rankings can be mentioned, in particular these plagued by market-share losses and monetary complications.
