Five years after Matt Kean blurted out that getting rid of coal would mean household electricity bills would be $130 cheaper per household per year, the price of electricity has skyrocketed from between $380 and $530, depending on which thieves you are dealing with (NSW). About $190 dearer per year.

When asked when prices would come down, Klown Kean said, “when we get more ‘renewables’”. The problem is, “the price of coal”.

When Kean and his ilk depend on lies for their outlandish incomes, they lie.

One of the other clowns involved in the $275 lie, Chalmers, now says, “But there’s no use pretending that there won’t be pressure on household budgets from high electricity prices in the interim".

Everything these arseholes say is a pretence.

The galahs keep saying that coal - that along with gas, is the only thing keeping the lights on - needs to disappear to make electricity cheaper!

The Brits were told the same lie, but now that they have no coal power since last year, electricity prices are 60% higher.

Nukes are never going to happen so get over it. You could say the libs got nuked promoting nukes.
SMR only exist as 100 KwH / day and very short fuel cycle before changing.
Albo is your leader, the peoples of Australia clearly elected him as our massier. Some just cannot get over the fact that their party was ruined by imaginary visions of things that go against the majority of voters.
Spreading insults is no way of opposing something that is impossible and against the will of society.
Comparing AU against elsewhere in the world does not fit any situation and never will. AU is one of a kind and unmatched any where.

Even AEMO doesn’t endorse net zero by 2025.

They disagree with Bowen on prices coming down and the “cheapness” and “reliability” of his rubbish delusions, even warning of the real danger of blackouts - within a year! Bowen will probably be overseas when they occur, bumming for COP.

Everything Bowen says is the very opposite of reality.

There is now talk of extending the life of Eraring - again! So much for replacing coal. Bugger all is happening, except for yackety yack and funny face pulling by Bowen, who has now gone part-time on his portfolio. Same money, of course, plus travel and accommodation out of the country.

Like all things in a democratic, free enterprise country, energy should be in the hands of the market, in which the best, the cheapest, most reliable product wins.

But, Australia is looking less and less like a democratic free enterprise country by the week. And, sadly, the last election indicates that is what the average Australian wants.

WTF?

I really do not know why people do not seem to understand what transition is all about.

It was only a short period of time ago that the renewable alarmists on OLO were bagging South Australia's energy transition.

However, now "The Transition Plan for System Security, published on Monday by the Australian Energy Market Operator, identifies South Australia as the only state grid which is not facing a system strength deficit in coming years."

"Even AEMO doesn’t endorse net zero by 2025." ttbn, I don't think anyone does. That's what senility does to the brain. Nursey, please up the old blokes does of Doz-Ezy to a pack a day, 10 tabs just doesn't cut it anymore

What are the happy little users going to do when their windmills and solar panels wear out?

The Australian Energy Council reports that “the cumulative volume of waste from small-scale and large-scale solar projects will reach approximately 685,000 tonnes by 2030”, when they have to be removed from rooftops and paddocks.

Some of the stuff from renewables can be recycled; but at the cost of $10-$20 to recycle one solar panel, against $2 to bury it, what’s going to happen?

There are already piles of old windmills laying about in NSW forests - revealed on TV a couple of years ago. But, we are told by the grifters that renewables are a “net positive for the environment”.

Windmill blades are “almost impossible to recycle”. Into the landfill with them, asbestos and all!

And the only thing true about Labor’s ‘vast numbers of jobs’ created by renewables will be the demand for garbage collectors to deal with the waste. (Robert Weir, ‘The solar and wind waste that the Albanese govt doesn’t want you to know about’).
