Just received an email from Premier Weatherill's office outlining what will happen to power in SA:

Battery storage to go ahead.

New gas powered plant owned by SA.

Strong powers to bring control of the market back into South Australian hands.

New energy security target.

Incentive for companies to use more SA gas.

Use Government electricity contract to attract new electricity generation, increasing competition and putting downward pressures on prices.

If one penny of federal money goes into this I'll spew.

Those that argue with the devil will surely lose out.
SA will show how it's done.
More rooftop solar will be the big winner.

Ttbn, gas fired power station. I know news travels slowly to SA but
have they not heard that there is a gas shortage.
Of course if the can divert some of the export gas that should be done.
What cost will it be, one way or another it will be the most expensive.

Doog: More rooftop solar will be the big winner.

Until sunset !

Buzz the unrevolutionist. Exports have got more than their share is the only problem. Thanks to Howard giving Japan a never ending supply at 5 cents a litre.
Australia has the biggest supply of natural gas in the world. That has made us the biggest exporter. They forgot to factor in gas for home.
SA is giving farmers a share of the gas from their own properties.
