saying that your idea of net zero that every household needs to generate enough of their own power on premises that they can be off-grid?

That's not how this is going to work.

Building your own coal station in your backyard and running it everyday would also cripple you financially - as well as requiring you to do daily coal loading and maintenance far more often than every decade. And solar panels last more than 20 years.

p.s. It's far easier to supply more electric capacity for road users driving evs than it is to continually ship in gigatonnes of petroleum every year.

“Far easier to supply more electric capacity”?

What percentage of PV panels and Wind factories are Aussie made?

Name just one industrialised country that has been able to disconnect from the FF teat?

As far as I can see there’s only one country that comes close and they’re using their sovereign wealth funds (generated by huge petro reserve funds to pay for it).

It’s only the loony lefties that “imagine” that renewable energy is adequate and even most of them accept that the technology still has a long way to go before it can possibly support our needs of today.
