The company is looking for a buyer, and it's already talking to three, <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/rbssTechMediaTelecomNews/idUSN1348561020091114" target="_blank">according to a report by Reuters</a>. Everything is up for grabs, from a majority stake in the company to 100% of it, and the back-and-forth going on is at a "very aggressive level." <br /></p>
<p>The businesses looking to pick up Ausra are said to be global power generation conglomerates but haven't been named yet. So, the clean energy company would be a way for one of them to diversify.</p>
