  1. Agree, it is good that the problems are showing up now, while there still are some coal fired power stations standing and not yet blown up.

  2. Why don't you point out BP has not indicted how much money they have thrown into the project, and at this stage is only making a commitment for 3 years? Just enough time to get the WA and Federal Governments i.e taxpayers, to stump up MASSIVE subsidies and handouts.

  3. Look for the silver lining in the current mess. It is actually a blessing that the mess has occurred now, right at the time that those who want to destroy the energy market have taken over the government. It clearly shows the public exactly what the future holds if these idiots get their way. It will keeps the Greens and Teals not game to say boo, and even Labor isn't that stupid to press on with their ridiculous promises of 85% renewables by 2030. FFS, imagine just what the current mess would have been like if the wind had completely died during the night.

  4. Utter crap. As at 9.35pm South Australia is using MORE electricity than is being generated in the state. At the time of typing this response the shortfall is being made up by electricity generated in Victoria. But don't feel to bad about it, NSW isn't generating enough to meet current demand either.

  5. Utter crap. The problems stared 20 years ago during the Gillard/Rudd era when against all advice Gillard and Rudd rejected the concept of a local reservation cap for East Coast gas exports. Even the union movements was screaming at them for their foolishness at that time. They committed to long term contracts that can't simply been reversed.
