    So you're comparing a fossil powered grid that took 100 years to build vs an infant renewable grid that has to adapt to the old grid and doesn't even have any commercial firming assets yet ?

    Yeah, that's a fair comparison . rolleyes.png

    Do you have a chart for where renewable energy is constrained btw ?

    " The Australian Energy Market Operator has taken the dramatic move of slashing the allowable output from five solar farms in Victoria and NSW by half, because of issues over “system strength” that appear to have suddenly emerged.

    The solar farms involved are Broken Hill in NSW, and the Karadoc, Wemen, Bannerton and Gannawarra solar farms in north west Victoria. The constraint limiting them to just half of their nominated capacity came into effect at 12pm on Friday, as this graph below illustrates. "
