    Unfortunately for the residents of SA  the plans of their  fearless CO2 vanquisher Wetherill  are going sadly wrong .
    The article below gives some understanding to why SA has the highest electricity prices in the world and still rising fast.
    When your plan fails change but unfortunately like many other warmist parrots( Di Natele , Flannery ) Wetherill is totally inelastic  and blind to the severe failings of his baseload destroyed power system.

    Today things are not running smoothly in the green states of Victoria and SA where prices this minute have hit $14,000 per MW hour, or $14 per KWh. These are wholesale prices. Right now heads of major industries are watching the dashboard, turning off everything they can turn off, or switching on the diesel generators, or counting hundreds of thousands or even millions being added to their bills if production cannot stop.
    Demand Management schemes (a form of load shedding) will be running to reduce demand — air conditioners will be remotely switched down.
    How much of the productive brain power of Vic and SA is distracted from more useful tasks today?
    The AEMO has put out an Actual Lack of Reserve Notice (LOR1) saying that Victoria is 300 MW short: “The contingency capacity reserve required is 1100 MW. The minimum reserve available is 815 MW”. Another notice of a “non-credible contingency event” (a code for “something broke”) reports that a busbar, transformer, and line have tripped or opened in Victoria, unplanned.

    A system planned for failure and reducing global temperatures not one thousandth of a degree.
