An increasingly agitated renewable energy industry has issued another plea to the government and opposition to end the stalemate over Australia's renewable energy target.

It comes as Industry Minister Ian Macfarlane used an interview on Thursday to say it was Labor, not the government, "who is causing the uncertainty in the industry now".

It is more than 13 months since the government's Warburton review of the renewable energy target began.

Clean Energy Council (CEC) chief executive Kane Thornton said he had not received a formal response from either party to a compromise the council has proposed that would reduce the target to 33,500 gigawatt hours of annual renewable energy production by 2020.
