And the big ARENA party last week?
View attachment 6086492Horizon was there - I wonder if AVL attended?
as per the linked in post above renewable energy storage was a key discussion point:
“During his opening remarks, ARENA CEO
Darren Miller said, “It’s critical that we’re here today together to share what we’re learning and to help one another advance the technical, commercial and regulatory interventions that will support an accelerated uptake of renewable energy storage solutions.”
And as per lots of headlines the $1billion ‘Solar Shot program has already been announced
.
. “$1bn in production incentives and grants to ensure Australian industry can make solar technology as part of the energy transition...” It’s all about solar panels but what about the batteries?
Below in the spoiler, FWIW, is a lift from The Australian today opining on the ramifications by the CEO of the only solar panel manufacturer in Australia ….
(but no mention of VFBs?)
In a roundabout connection to storage however The Conversation notes Townsville - where vanadium flow batteries and electrolyte production are already the order of the day - is also stepping forward in the direction of panels
What about us?
cheers
