Astonishing move by Abbott to stifle wind farm investment

‘The $10 billion Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC) has been told to stop investing in wind power projects, in a move the Federal Opposition has described as a “dramatic escalation” in the Government’s war on wind farms.

‘Treasurer Joe Hockey and Finance Minister Mathias Cormann have written to the corporation directing it to change its investment mandate, banning new funding for wind projects.’
