  1. Plug-In Solar for Renters: Australia's Energy Ministers Open the DoorOn 11 September 2026, Energy Ministers agreed to explore safe pathways for plug-in solar and batteries — a first step toward unlocking CER for renters and apartment dwellers.
  2. From MoU to Mekong: Australia–Vietnam Digital Delivery Gets RealAugust's Australia–Vietnam digital economy MoU points to the same shift: bilateral tech cooperation is moving from statements into delivery.
  3. Australia–Vietnam Tech Corridor: Semiconductors, Critical Minerals, and Bilateral MomentumFrom advanced packaging in Sydney to substrate plants in Hai Phong, the Australia–Vietnam tech corridor is built on semiconductors, critical minerals, and clean energy supply chains — bilateral, not trilateral theatre.
  4. Bac Ninh’s VND 6 Million Nudge for Rooftop Solar and BatteriesFrom 1 August 2026, Bac Ninh households can claim up to VND 6 million for rooftop solar plus storage — a local subsidy designed to travel with national self-consumption rules.
  5. AES Andes in Chile: Storage Hybrids Leave the Pilot EraFrom Andes Solar III to Bolero BESS, AES Andes is stacking solar-plus-storage at scale in Chile — a live case study in hybrid operation, not slideware.
  6. AEMC’s CER Visibility Rule: Making Local Grids LegibleThe AEMC’s July 2026 final rule replaces thin annual distribution reports with longer-term network development plans and a path to consistent CER-relevant data.
  7. Chile’s CMF Fintech Registry: Compliance Tooling After the Easy PeriodChile’s Fintech Law registry is no longer a transition story. CMF cancellations and refusals show that registration without ongoing compliance is a dead end.
  8. Vietnam Decree 243: Rooftop Surplus Sales Lifted to 50%Decree 243/2026/ND-CP raises the sellable surplus cap for self-consumption rooftop solar from 20% to 50% — and opens a time-boxed path to go higher where grids can cope.
  9. AUSTRAC Tranche 2 Is Live: Compliance Gets Real for AdvisersFrom 1 July 2026, Australia’s AML/CTF net widened to lawyers, accountants, real estate and more. Enrolment deadlines, programs and tooling now matter in production.

  12. Chile’s Net Billing Solar Crosses 500 MWAcesol data based on SEC figures puts Chile’s net billing scheme above 500 MW. Distributed solar is real — paired storage is still barely started.
  13. AEMO’s 2026 ISP: Consumer Energy as System InfrastructureThe final 2026 Integrated System Plan treats rooftop solar, batteries and EVs as core infrastructure — not a side note to big wires and big turbines.
  14. After the Rebate Rush: Australia’s Home Batteries Post–1 MayThe Cheaper Home Batteries Program did not end on 1 May 2026 — it was restructured. What the tiered discount means for households, installers, and grid planning.
