Press Release

Response to AGL decision to defer appointment of contractor for the Silverton Wind Farm

July 11, 2013

GE has consistently supported the Renewable Energy Target (RET) of 45,000GWh by 2020 and welcomed the bipartisan support for the target.

As a supplier of more than 20,000 wind turbines around the world and a significant investor in renewable energy projects itself, GE believes a stable RET and favourable sites augured well for the future development of renewables as part of Australia's energy mix.

However, the current legislated requirement for the RET to reviewed every two years itself creates uncertainty for renewable energy project developers, investors and suppliers.

GE believes the Silverton wind farm is an important project for Australia's future energy security, sustainability and affordability.
