SA’s Wind Farms Guilty: 28 September ‘Black System’ Caused by Wind Power Output Collapse
*** Whichever way you slice it (and it's been cut from every possibly exculpatory angle), South Australia's infamous Statewide blackout on 28 September 2016 was due to the inability of its 18 wind farms to tough out a typically vigorous spring storm front.

SA’s Self-Inflicted Power Debacle: Instead of $550m on Diesel Generators & Batteries, $25m Could Have Saved Baseload Plant & the State
Good governance requires more than just a little common sense. The antithesis of good governance is arrogance, hubris and ideology. In Australia's so-called 'wind power capital', South Australia, its hapless Labor government could never be accused of letting common sense get in the way of its efforts to destroy any remaining economic advantage that the … Continue reading SA’s Self-Inflicted Power Debacle: Instead of $550m on Diesel Generators & Batteries, $25m Could Have Saved Baseload Plant & the State

How Political Lunacy Sabotaged Australia’s Once Reliable & Affordable Power Suply
If what Australia's political brains trust has done to its once reliable and affordable power supply had been done by external agents, it would have been branded an act of terrorism.
