National disaster management experts have gathered for a summit in Canberra, and look at this contribution from the weather bureau. The BOM chief, Andrew Johnson, says the El Nino summer poses a threat to our energy grid, because it\u2019ll be our first hot summer with so much renewable energy in the system. In other words, it\u2019s the first hot summer since a bunch of other base load generation has been shut down. Well done governments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the problem here is not the weather. We can always expect hot summers. We always have and we always will have hot summers. Just because we had a couple of mild summers doesn\u2019t mean we didn\u2019t all know we\u2019d have plenty of scorches to come. The problem is not the weather. It is the electricity grid. What we\u2019ve done to it. And how we now don\u2019t have enough reliable, dispatchable electricity. Pretty straightforward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ll always have those summers and we\u2019ll always have air conditioners, but we can no longer rely on the energy to power them. But the Albanese Labour Government of course is doubling down on all this stuff, announcing just another $70 million today for a so-called green hydrogen project in Whyalla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Anthony Albanese:&nbsp;<\/strong>There is an opportunity that Australia has to be a renewable energy superpower, and South Australia has been at the forefront of the transition to renewables for a long period of time. It can certainly be at the forefront of this transition to be a renewable energy superpower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Chris Kenny:&nbsp;<\/strong>Really? \u201cA renewable energy superpower?\u201d You would think that a renewable energy superpower would have lots of power, energy, and South Australia sure is at the vanguard. That\u2019s why it has the most expensive electricity in the nation and the least reliable. No base load generation in South Australia, totally reliant on renewables, backup generators, and interstate supplies. Little wonder it\u2019s the only state to have a statewide blackout. It cost that state hundreds of millions of dollars, remember? That was back in 2016, and it plunged the state back into 1816, which just shows us what we\u2019ve done to ourselves on energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here\u2019s what that visiting energy expert tells us about our move to a renewables plus storage model. A model I keep saying has simply not been attempted, let alone achieved, in any comparable country around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Mark Nelson:&nbsp;<\/strong>If any country can do it, maybe it\u2019s Australia. And I guess I really appreciate your sacrifice in this fairly dangerous experiment that you\u2019re undertaking, because I don\u2019t have to suffer the consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Chris Kenny:\u00a0<\/strong>Yeah, that\u2019s it. We are suffering the consequences. That\u2019s exactly it. It\u2019s a grand experiment. Wonderful, isn\u2019t it? We are the green energy guinea pigs for the rest of the world.<br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skynews.com.au\/opinion\/chris-kenny\/green-energy-guinea-pigs-albanese-government-doubling-down-on-renewables\/video\/6f7b8bfbaebefd6dca531de5e6142fe3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em><strong>Sky News<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"723\" height=\"407\" data-attachment-id=\"282032\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=282032\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/0blackout-243.jpg?fit=976%2C549&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"976,549\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"0blackout-243\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/0blackout-243.jpg?fit=723%2C407&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/0blackout-243.jpg?resize=723%2C407&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-282032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/0blackout-243.jpg?w=976&amp;ssl=1 976w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/0blackout-243.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/0blackout-243.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 723px) 100vw, 723px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From STOP THESE THINGS When disaster threatens the rational retreat, but the clown soldiers on and even doubles down, accelerating the race to oblivion.
