    "it will need a much larger battery in order to manage peaks, supply grid services.."

    If only Hornsdale could compete on cost with gas-generation,.. if it could it'd already be doing that in a significant way.. but alas, outbid, over and over again.

    So let's see.. emergency backup, fail.. (on capacity)
    Filling peaks.. mostly fail (on cost)

    What else have you got?
