Daily Energy News Podcast | The RBA Rate Hold & The 520 MW Canberra Battery

 In today's episode for Monday, 10 August 2026, the Reserve Bank of Australia convenes its August monetary policy board meeting, with major banks forecasting a cash rate hold at 4.35% as international energy price shocks stall. Meanwhile, week two of the restored fuel excise pushes national petrol past $2.20 a litre. In clean energy infrastructure, Quinbrook submits plans for a massive 520 MW standalone battery near Canberra, the CEFC launches a $100 million fund targeting regional distribution-connected storage, and administrators confirm liquidation is likely for ZEN Energy after a "long solar, short storage" strategy failed.
