Another day, another great announcement by a progressive forward looking government .

" Australia is to fund eight big batteries with a combined 4.2 gigawatt hours of storage capacity in a new funding round designed to close the gap to 100 per cent renewable energy.

The $176 million of funding from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency focuses on advanced grid forming inverters which are capable of providing most, if not all, of the crucial grid services currently delivered by the big coal fired power stations expected to close over the coming decade. "

Oh woopie !!!!

8 batteries will give us 4.2 GWhs of storage.
The actual generation of power in Australia per year (2021), is ... wait for it ... 270,000 GWhs.
So, per day Australia generates 270,000/365 = 740 GWhrs.

Gee those batteries, (4.2 GWhs), are going to be a great help hey !!!
