The Australian Energy Update | The Great Wind Drought Shockwave & The Fuel Excise Extension

In today's jam-packed episode for Monday, 22 June 2026, we unpack an extraordinary weekend on the Australian grid. We break down the worst one-day wind drought in over two years, which saw South Australia slam into the absolute $20,300 per megawatt-hour price cap twice, catching several grid batteries completely off guard. We also cover Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s breaking announcement extending the 16 cents per litre fuel excise relief into August, the controversial state greenlight for BHP's massive Saraji East coal expansion, and Fortescue's historic multi-vessel green ammonia shipping deal.
