[06:33:24] <exec> 08└─Not enough though: peak power consumption is around 3000MW [aer.gov.au]. Assuming peak demand, 50% coming from renewables and unfavourable renewables conditions, 900MWh will last less than 1h. A pity the fed govt (liberal = conservative) decided to boycott SA's renewable plans. Australia is large, t...
