@szurketaltos2693 The answer to your question is... You are lying that they are using DC. "The system has transmission lines reaching to power generation facilities located more than 1,000 kilometres (600 mi) away from population centers. For this reason, TransÉnergie uses a voltage of AC 735 kV to transmit and distribute electrical power produced from Hydro-Québec's dams, although 315 kV is used as well."

@sparksmacoy "Australia should not allow foreigners (of any kind)" So leave Australia and go back to UK... who is stoping you? I can bet that no native Australian will be crying that you are leaving. heh or is it the case of "do as i preach not as i do"?

@huaiwei "New South Wales, a state in southeast Australia, was founded by the British as a penal colony in 1788. Over the next 80 years, more than 160,000 convicts were transported to Australia from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, in lieu of being given the death penalty." so its not racism or xenohobia just bad memories from times when his grandpa was revealing to him dark family secrets... :D

Then check frequency when skin effects is causing problems. AC is causing induction in anything near the cable that transmit electricity(and sea water can do that). And pipes are used for high frequency electric signal because of skin effect, the small wires in typical cable are there so you can bend it easly and without causing damage to the cable, in typical range of temperatures at least, in Siberia and -70deg C outside power cable can easly break during bending.

@abrame8750 "ranks first among the world's largest iron ore producing countries, with output totalling 900 million tonnes in 2020 – around 37.5% of total world production. " with all that big car producers in Europe i can bet that you have no idea what you are talking about...

@roxyview Go find some Aboriginal Australians and whine them how mad you are that people in Singapore are using hard work not good old fashioned British Empire style robbery from native population of the land... hehe

@Johnsmith-zi9pu "Australia can't power it's self with solar" what is wrong with you? That profesor you were talking here about is his IQ below 90 or is he on a payroll of some Australia coal producer? Did you get anything out of this video?(rhetorical question as it is obvious you didn't understand anything). "The Lightyear One is a large hatchback, with the bonnet, roof and boot clad with 5 m2 (54 sq ft) of solar panels, with a WLTP (Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure) range of 725 km (450 miles) and designed with a drag coefficient of Cd=0.20. The company Lightyear claims there are 1,000 solar panels across the car that can add 50–65 km (30–40 miles) of range per day during summer. The car is all-wheel drive, with four in-wheel electric hub motors powered by a low-mounted battery. It seats five adults and luggage." And surface of Australia is 7.692 million km² (1km² = 1000m*1000m = 1,000,000m²) btw. if you want to cook with the sun then you do not need electricity for it, you can use "solar cooker" and single square meter of surface can colect enought energy to cook your food...

Also skin effect is for high frequency transmision of power and then pipes are used(like for radio signals in big radio antenas). Wires are made from much smaller wires for mechanical reasons. And DC is used in cables that are under water because they are in salt water and AC would be inducting electricity in that electrolyte...
