Scott , you might wish to look up this page and contemplate the word Grant vs Loan.
See below as well.
Now , the problem I have with a lot of these grants is that they are supposed to be useful in greening our world.
I call bullshit.
Any info from this ''research '' on whether these trucks , chargers etc will do any good , could probably be found out by googling their specs and checking out whatever has been done overseas already , or is about to be done overseas.
Now , lets forget the widows and orphans for a moment , the 20mill , even if it were a concessional loan , not a grant , might have better spent , along with a heap more money on the grid [ where a lot of the money wasted on rooftop solar subsidies should have gone] .
I would invite people to do a bit of an audit of Arena's accomplishments, a bit like watching ''Utopia''.Home > About ARENA
Expertise
Since 2012, we have supported 663 projects with $2.25 billion in grant funding, unlocking a total investment of almost $9.75 billion in Australia’s renewable energy industry.
Our expertise, deep understanding of the renewable energy sector and willingness to fund innovative and ground-breaking projects mean we provide a pathway to commercialisation for many new technologies and businesses that would otherwise struggle to get off the ground or be potentially lost to overseas markets. We help them get on with the business of renewables.
