peckstar has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
all hypothetical answers really werent they. you really only stated one form of renewable energy there that works and it is over 500 km from the nearest capital city. imagine the costs of transmission

Wind only works when there is baseload to back it up, ie most of the time. Hot rocks please. go out and pour somewater on a hot rock to make steam and tell me what happens. it cools. no more hot rocks.


what have we lost . billions of dollars what have we lost. straight up in victoria. the cost of electricity will double. thats an extra billion dollars every family will pay, plus the inflationary factor on business that will push prices up even more. all for a theory that seems to be lacking
