"Australia is set to triple its large-scale solar energy capacity after funding from a threatened federal agency helped drive down costs almost to those of wind farms.
The Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) will announce the 12 projects that will share part of its latest funding round of $92 million on Thursday. "
The winners include what will become the country's largest solar farm, with ARENA chipping in $20 million towards the $216.7 million needed to build the 110 MW plant.
