Essay by Eric Worrall

The Aussie Government is worried it might have to pay for Australia’s own commercially unviable renewable projects, after President Trump pulled US support.

In short:

The company behind a planned major Victorian offshore wind farm has pulled out of the market, saying it is no longer commercially viable.

It comes as an energy expert warns the country is not on track to meet its renewable energy targets.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Cape Wind (off Martha's Vineyard) has yet to get off the ground.

Vineyard Wind (off Nantucket) is a disaster before its even come online.

The Maine Clean Energy Connector hasn't been completed yet.

They shutdown coal, LNG, and nuclear power plants with the expectation that these clean energy projects would be online already.  Guess what?  Electricity prices in the region have risen as supply has decreased.
