Australia: European Energy’s 31MW Mulwala solar PV plant registered in AEMO system

Australia: European Energy’s 31MW Mulwala solar PV plant registered in AEMO system

Registration in AEMO’s MMS is a prerequisite for any generator to participate in the National Electricity Market (NEM), enabling the facility to submit dispatch bids, undergo commissioning tests, and ultimately receive revenue for electricity supplied to the grid. The registration indicates the facility is ready to begin testing and commissioning activities, with the asset classified

It’s finally happened — renewable energy just overtook coal as the world’s main source of electricity as solar growth hits ‘the largest ever observed for any source’

It’s finally happened — renewable energy just overtook coal as the world’s main source of electricity as solar growth hits ‘the largest ever observed for any source’

(Image credit: Power Integrations) Renewables now account for more of the world’s electricity than coal They represent 33.8% of electricity generation compared to 33% for coal Solar is a key driver here, as it met 75% of the growth in global electricity demand Sustainability Week 2026 This article is part of a series of sustainability-themed
