" and @ianwill that's only because govts have put policies in place that stop investment in coal fired power. "
What are those policies exactly ?
It seems the government is in favor of coal. Abbott got rid of the carbon tax. Morrison killed the NEG.
I'd say that's action in favor of coal. And yet, no one's building cfps.
As to the lame claim there is no country with no fossil. Renewables are still in their infancy. Growing by the day. Displacing fossil by the day.
" Renewable energy grew by an annual average of 3.2% in the ten years between 2007-2017 and by 5.2% between 2016-2017. This contrasts to growth in coal (-1.9%), oil (1.7%) and gas (2.9%) over the same ten year period.[2] It is estimated that Australia produced 48,279 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of renewable electricity in 2018, which accounted for 21.3% of the total amount of electricity generated in Australia.[3 "
