CIS auction wins ensure South Australia will be first grid in world to reach 100 pct net wind and solar (Renew Economy)
Two key project wins in the first large scale generation tender under the Capacity Investment Scheme means that South Australia is now set to become the first gigawatt-scale grid in the world to reach 100 per cent “net” renewables, all through wind and solar.
The state currently leads the country, and the world, with an average share of more than 72 per cent renewables (all wind and solar) over the last 12 months, and has recently accelerated its target of reaching 100 per cent net renewables to 2027, rather than 2030 as first planned.
