In the last 48 hours, the 8GW of approved & built #Victorian windfarms produced less power than they need to operate. Even if you covered the entire state with them, you would have needed 150GW of back up battery, or a real base load power supply Lily D'Ambrosio MP Jacinta Allan
To build the necessary 96GW of battery that would have been needed to store the demand shortfall in the past 24 hours would cost so many Billions its not funny, then spend it all over again in 10 to 15 years when it would need to be replaced. Lily D'Ambrosio MP Jacinta Allan
Morning peak energy consumption and not a wind or solar MW in sight. Turbines actually drawing more off the grid at the moment to stay excited & warm.
& Lily D'Ambrosio MP can't build enough battery capacity to cover the necessary capacity for the Autumn wind lull and shorter sun

And as the day closes to an end, #Victorian tax payers would all be relying on candles if any electrical generators built before the year 2000 was turned off.
You might need to devise a plan that has a chance of working Lily D'Ambrosio MP & Jacinta Allan
