Rooftop solar could be switched off/curtailed, on an almost daily basis – just to accommodate the 14 gigawatts of #nuclear power that Coalition wants to jam into #Australia grid. #auspol #auspol24 reneweconomy.com.au/solar-switch...

I had polio when i was 9. I was taken from my parents & placed in a Hospital for contageous diseases- the polio ward. I would see them once a week - thru the glass window at the end of my ward. I could not walk. It was terrifying. Kids died. Iron lungs were awful. Dont let RFK Jr ban the vaccine

Gina's nuclear Plan☢️ versus renewables☀️

submitted 197 days ago • 1 comment

This offshore wind farm could replace virtually all of Australia’s coal power stations. It is evidence a minority state government can get on with the move away from coal, and that Labor and Liberal governments can work together to achieve real zero. #auspol

Dutton is laughably citing his personal propaganda machine News Corp to spread disinformation/lies/bullshit (call it what you like) about the cost of nuclear power. Fact is, Dutton’s mega expensive nuclear plan has one goal: destroying renewables, delaying climate action, propping up fossil fuels.

Utterly predictable. Useless ambition and dangerous conman.

I was down in the south west this morning and kept seeing these Orange Kelpies, would have seen 7 or 8 without trying. Alex Dyson getting quite a lot of support with @VoicesofWannon and we're still 6 months out from an election. The local member Dan Tehan must be really on the nose...

‘Nuclear power stations require 20-25% *more* cooling water than coal-fired stations, a critical issue given the stressed Latrobe River catchment,’ writes Philip Hopkin’s in LV Express #Water, Mr Littleproud!! #Nucler is no good for farmers !! #auspol latrobevalleyexpress.com.au/news/2024/12...

Good point by Scott Hamilton. This is a point that I have also previously raised. Nuclear also makes no sense in Australia from an economic point of view.

The national energy marketer seems alarmed by the (wonderful, world-leading!) fact that *4 million* Australian homes and businesses have rooftop solar. It’s time for the government to help all those homes and businesses afford the batteries they need to store their cheap, clean energy.

Dutton’s nuclear policy is like a prepaid funeral. Vaguely overpriced and we’ll never see it happen.

NEED SOME GOOD NEWS? The EU now generates more electricity from wind and solar than from fossil fuels. Graph from @natbullard.bsky.social using @emberenergy.bsky.social data.

Don't believe those who say Sizewell C will be value for money! "It will cost [UK taxpayers] £128.8bn to safely wind down old [nuclear] facilities, according to an investigation by the NAO – £23.5bn more than previously expected, after factoring in...1/3 www.telegraph.co.uk/business/202...

Real world install rates for solar keep outdoing expectations. Nuclear unlikely to be able to compete, and would be completely dependent on governments forcing it upon communities www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07...
