French renewable power producer Neoen’s 36MW Griffith solar PV plant in New South Wales, Australia, was the best-performing large-scale solar PV asset in terms of AC capacity in January 2025.
Australia-based Clean Energy Investor Group (CEIG) has suggested that the outdated National Electricity Market (NEM) design is stifling investment in large-scale renewable generation projects in Australia.
The AEMO has detailed in a new report that grid-scale solar PV output achieved a new quarterly high average on the NEM of 2,212MW, an increase of 9% year-on-year (YoY).
Australia’s Essential Services Commission (ESC) proposes dropping the minimum flat feed-in tariff for solar PV to AU$0.04/kWh from 1 July 2025-26, down from the current AU$3.3/kWh in 2024-25.
The Australian Energy Market Commissioner (AEMC) has released a final determination to enable virtual power plants (VPPs) to compete directly with large-scale generators in Australia’s energy market.
The Australian government has commenced a review of the National Electricity Market (NEM) to identify how it will operate in the coming decades and facilitate the uptake of solar PV.
