      SOEs seen boosting investment in renewable projects in Australia

      Chinese State-owned companies are expected to boost their investment in Australia's expanding renewable energy sector, attracted by a national leadership that is more favorable to the industry than its forerunner, Reuters reported on Tuesday.

      With six to eight State-owned enterprises (SOEs) already involved in or looking closely at Australian energy assets, Melbourne-based financial advisors SILC Group said more deals were coming, with a particular focus on green power.

      They would follow State Power Investment Corp's A$300 million ($230 million) buyout of a wind farm in the state of New South Wales last week, as well as its $2.5 billion purchase in December of Pacific Hydro, a company that has wind farms in Australia, Brazil and Chile.

      "There was always interest, but now there's increased interest from the Chinese," said Peter Munns, an executive director at SILC, which works with China's State-backed firms.

      "Chinese companies always like our rule of law, our currency risk and stable economy. They like renewables, they also like poles and wires because the revenue is underpinned by regulation."

      After coming to power in 2015, the government led by Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull in December reversed a decision by the previous administration banning the country's clean energy fund from investing in wind power projects, opening the door to more deals in the sector. Former prime minister Tony Abbott had described wind farms as "ugly" and "noisy".

      Munns told Reuters in an interview last week that Chinese firms were looking for projects with long-term off-take agreements that would get them a foot in the door in Australian markets, as well as local expertise that would help them grow.

      "They don't just want to have one wind farm here, they want to have a portfolio," said Munns. "Most want to do solar as well. But they probably think that's a couple of years down the track before it's as economic and as viable as wind is."

      A unit of China Shenhua is already part operator of several wind farms in the state of Tasmania, while Beijing Jingneng Power has a stake in the Gullen Range wind farm in New South Wales. Other Chinese State-owned companies that have said they are looking at Australian energy assets including Shanghai Electric Power Co.
