EV's & BATTERY STORAGE should never be conflated with the terms Renewables/Green Energy, and the delusion of substantial decarbonization.

Lower Carbon use, yes absolutely, full decarbonization however is a fools errand.

Reality v Ideology

101.

Reality is top dog.



For a Country to excel it must have affordable & reliable energy, ongoing, 24/7, and a supply source that doesn't need a complete change out of hardware every 15 years(if that). If an intermittent energy source cannot stand alone, as the name alludes to, it is automatically & inherently more expensive due to requiring a parallel system(or more) that of course can stand alone- BASE LOAD.

For all aspects of our Economy, including EV / Battery Storage to excel we must have affordable, reliable energy supply.

Australia does not have affordable, reliable energy atm. This is destroying our economy.

The lefts, ie John Kerry, Trudeau, Albanese, Bowen, Andrews/Allan, Kean, Bandt et al & the subsidy "Green Billionaire" grift crew, ie Twiggy/Brookes, are not in the "Renewables" caper for Earth's or our benefit imo....ITS SELF INTEREST & CASHOLA......a lot of it OUR cash . This is IMO only of course.

Wouldn't matter if this article was 2010, 2023, 2033....IT WONT DATE, imo.

Woke, Socialist elite left policies gut Economies and lower living standards. For the intelligent this has always been known, for the dreamers who lack basic common-sense and mechanical aptitude this is clearly for them in the ether.
