If Australians Want Reliable & Affordable Electricity: It’s Coal-Fired Power or Nothing
The debate surrounding Australia’s energy crisis is occupied by two camps: deluded zealots and pragmatic realists. STT sits with the latter: we couldn’t care less whether electricity was generated using doggie doo, provided it’s available and affordable, to all-comers. Australia, as the world’s third largest exporter of uranium, ought to be throwing its money and … Continue reading If Australians Want Reliable & Affordable Electricity: It’s Coal-Fired Power or Nothing

Liberal MPs Demand End to Australia’s Economy-Wrecking, Hidden $60bn Federal Power Tax
Already suffering the world’s highest power prices, Australian power consumers have watched prices jump by anything up to 28% in 12 months.

Crunch Time: Australia’s Self-Inflicted Energy Crisis Down to Wind & Solar Obsession
At the heart of Australia’s self-inflicted power pricing and supply calamity is an obsession with intermittent and unreliable wind and solar.

No Way Back From RE Disaster: Energy Minister Abandons Australia’s Power Consumers

Australia Enters Third World: Chaotic Delivery of Wind & Solar Forces Industrial Users Off Grid

No longer can industrial users expect to have power according to their business plans … Continue reading Australia Enters Third World: Chaotic Delivery of Wind & Solar Forces Industrial Users Off Grid
