India and Australia ties in clean energy
Significant investments are expected to be made in Australia’s rare earth sector as a result of the planned visit of Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to India. The Australian government and business community have backed the sector, which is likely to attract significant investment from KABIL, a state-run Indian mining company. India and Australia have taken action to cooperate on renewable energy technology since they have a common interest in clean energy, including the signing of a Memorandum of Intent on New and Renewable Energy.
