Revised REC legislation, which should ensure a secure medium term future for the wind industry in Australia is currently before the upper house. Little legislation is passing the upper house right now, nevertheless there are press indications that the bill may have enough support to pass.
Surplus of gas, and lack of carbon signal reduce generation prospects
