The great lie that green energy creates more CO2 pollution than fossil fuel energy production has been peddled by vested interest, Big Coal, Big Oil, Big Gas, for years, and the silly old Useful Idiots have taken the bait and believe and repeat the lie ad infinitum. These same folk also believe the Earth is flat, and smoking is good for you. Such negative people are the gullible, and the greedy, not to be listened to.

"The demand for power and control over the masses will just keep increasing until they revolt. So save time, revolt now", she says.

"I’m convinced that fear over climate change ...... is the last and best hope for those lustful to rule the world by force. Some people just want to run the world…" (Anon)

Paul1405,
You'd find that you're one of those successfully hood-winked were you to have the sense to comprehend !

2.8 MW.

Another 999 of them and we can replace the Hazelwood power station.

As Mhaze said this is virtue signalling with taxpayer's money.

What the Old Fossils on the forum don't realise with their pissing in the wind, is that no one wants to make long term investments in coal fired power stations. The payback is just not there, the smart money is being invested in renewable energy. The Noalition created a complete cock-up of the sector with 22 failed energy policies, now Labor has given a commitment to a strong policy, investors are clamouring to put money into renewable's. End of story.
