AEMO says we will have blackouts in 2 years.

Lost 8GW of energy (4 coal power plants)

nothing will replace it in next 2 years.

Backouts likely to occur quicker,

Existing coal power plants not repaired so can break down.

Rough calc to replace 8 GW coal.

Batteries 8 GW buy new each 8 years.

Renewables 8 GW for day.

Renewables 8 GW for night store.

Renewables 8 GW for when no sun or wind.

Nowhere near that energy in the pipeline.

We are following UK into a backwater state.
