🤓 remember all that fuss about grid reliability, when we urgently needed NEG's reliability g'tee?

pfft!

@AEMO_Media's latest report reveals grid's expected "unserved energy" remains low — ie. easily meets the 99.998% reliability standard.

SA & VIC expected to exceed 99.9994%! Image
…interestingly, in every scenario *grid* energy is projected to decrease.

why?
• more rooftop solar (reducing demand from grid)
• energy efficiency
• economic activity

(but including rooftop solar, total energy consumed generally rises year on year.) Image
…as things stand, even with #liddell coal power station closing in 2022/23, there is no technical requirement to build new dispatchable generation before 2029.

…unless, of course, coal power stations start falling over sooner than expected. Image

First re: strategy - don't over promise… that just leads to regret. So this is where the 💯%RE thing is a big mistake, which let's face it is fundamentally about 0% nuclear. And my take is that we need nuclear *with* renewables to make this work ultimately. 2/x @simonahac
There's other stuff: other techs, non-electricity emissions,… But clearly nuclear is the big bogeyman here so I'll focus on that. + the next decade or two will make clear(er) the difference in results b/w those that insist on effectively only relying on renewables vs those… 3/x
…using nuclear+renewables+whatever-else. i.e. California vs New Jersey with New York in the middle somewhere.
This strategy then is a long play. And we must recognise there will be "collateral damage" like X% loss of the Great Barrier Reef, where X>10 4/x

when @CraigKellyMP says they's almost 600 'HELE' coal power stations under construction totalling around 650,000MW, is he right?

nope. and nope. he's just making it up. #auspol
when @CraigKellyMP says japan is building 40 'HELE' power stations, is he right?

nope. just 5 — so few we can list in 1 tweet: Takehara, Noshiro, Hitachinaka Kyodo, Sumitomo Metals Kashima, Matsuura Kyushu.

they total just 3.5GW, & they haven't finished any in the past 7 years.
when @CraigKellyMP says there're many 💯s of ‘HELE’ stations operating throughout SE asia, is he right?

nope. there’re only 10:

indonesia: Adipala, Banten Serang, Cilacap Sumber, Cirebon, Paiton-3
malaysia: Manjung, Tanjung Bin
thailand: Gheco One
vietnam: Duyen Hai-3, Vinh Tan
