Lol. The deniers waffle away in their cubby houses pretending people care about what they say.
Meanwhile, the grownups of the world are moving on.
Now, a new industry is emerging for Australia. Offshore wind. levering off our existing infrastructure and technical no how. A win win situation.
Plenty of jobs. Plenty of clean power.
" Offshore wind is emerging as a major new component of Australia’s switch to a zero emissions grid and, more importantly, as a potential key to the country’s ambitions to become a renewable hydrogen superpower.
Australia has no offshore wind farms in operation or under construction. It doesn’t even have commonwealth legislation that will allow it, although that will hopefully change soon.
But offshore wind – courtesy of rapid (and surprising) cost reductions, has emerged a major new power play in Europe, and more recently Asia and north America, and Australia is blessed with good resources and, thanks to its offshore oil and gas industry, excellent know-how.
The Australian Energy Market Operator has now identified four significant offshore wind zones off the coast of NSW, Victoria and Tasmania, with a total nominal capacity of around 40 gigawatts. Even more significantly, all are located close to ports that could serve as major renewable hydrogen export hubs. "
