A good @4corners episode tonight. Some key takeaways... Short thread...
1. The age of cheap gas in Australia is over. @SantosLtd, @tony_r_wood, Andrew Liveris, @Matt_KeanMP, @barobertson111, Zoe Whitton agree, we will never have gas on cost parity with the US (~$4/GJ).

2. Batteries are going gang busters in Australia. There are four utility scale (BIG) batteries operating in SA, with 2 more in construction and that is where the finance sector is putting their $$. A good new report from @cleannrgcouncil today on this.

3. Manufacturers like Carlton United and SunMetals are starting to look to #renewables not just as a cheap way to provide power, but as an alternative to gas in industrial processes. If you work for a manufacturer the Business Renewables Centre and A2EP (@DoMoreUseLess) can help.

Last year I came up with a #Renewable Exports typology.
I reckon there are six main types of exports.
1. Direct electricity transfer via undersea cables, like the SunCable proposal to export power to Singapore afr.com/companies/ener…

2. Clean hydrogen-based fuel, using #renewable electricity to electrolyze water. Renewable hydrogen can then be turned into other chemicals like ammonia, which can be transported more easily and safely at scale.
