Are you fair dinkum 🤔
Who writes these ridiculous scripts.

Unless we increase the subsidy for more more coal fired power plants and have to pay extra for the privilege
How South Australia Doing
And there will be great famines and pestilence on the Earth; wars & rumours of war; signs in the heavens, if we do not abide by our Paris covenants. See, I can sound like a crazed lefty cultist too.
Wrong and ignorant. Power companies never lower prices as they must return continuing profit to investors including super funds, and they want margin to continue recovering their investment cost in infrastructure. Go checkthe realities
Sounds like yet another study that uses LCOE figures but fails to account for the increasing system costs of introducing variable & uncontrollable energy sources to grid supply. You can only externalise so much variability cost to existing infrastructure.
Yet more misleading and FakeNews onthe tax payers dime
Bullshit
Take away $5 billion in 'Fuel Tax Credits' and see coal shut down overnight. They're not legitimate tax deductions. According to the IMF they're subsidies
Rubbish - just watch the power prices rise with increased Solar and wind just like everywhere else in the world - what are we special and will have a reduced cost? Solar and wind are expensive technologies and don’t provide stable power. Remove all subsidies.
Australia has so many energy sources but big corporations tie up our resources and gouge consumers, they call it entrepreneurial.
Fake news - have you heard of taxpayer subsidisation that is preventing some taxpayers from receiving proper pensions

AngusTaylorMP Being the Federal Energy Minister...thoughts? Why are you so blindly stuck on coal and who’s money is lining your pockets? auspol
Total Bullshit
Who seriously believes that?
Says who ?
And watch our taxes rise, due 2 the subsidies from government to renewables & the 28% RET disadvantaged against coal. This is the type of joke that reporters at the privileged taxpayer subsided propagandise 2 the people of Australia. Who’s the real enemy of this country.
Unlikely, at least in Qld. Gov. Would be bankrupt without the super profits and co. investors still want returns. Factor in system cost, unit life expectancy and maintenance, no winners, nothing for free or cheap.
The fantasy of the fanatics......and when it doesn't happen 1.- They will absolutely NOT REPORTED 2.- Maybe in the future 3.- Renewables are getting cheaper than Coal climatechange renewableenergy auspol
I doubt that.
$25 less 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Does that mean they're draining taxpayers money a little slower? 🤔
We have 24 panels, no storage battery. Nov was quite sunny. After pay-on-time discounts & feed-in tariffs last month’s electricity bill was.....$0.31 . We’re moving to a new house & will have solar there too, w/battery. It works. solar
No it won’t. Australia would be the first country ever that got lower prices by increasing renewables.
I believe it’s a 2% saving which is about $28 😂😂😂😂😂😂 but IN reality the saving will be a big fat ZERO
FAKENEWS
48 cents a week ..... wow
Why do you hide the $3 billion in taxpayers subsidies?
RE: 'Australians pay less on their electricity bills.' Less, compared with when? That trick's been pulled before. Double-digit price hikes, followed by pathetic sub-1% reduction. Consumers aren't as gullible as you'd like them to be.
Lies no sign of cheaper power unless you get solar panels then it gets a bit cheaper but never cheap like we had
Australians will pay less on their electricity bills? Excuse me! The current federal government is offering a expectation of $100 less a year. What they don't say is that the average quarterly bill will be $1500 - or $6,000 a year! Oh yeah, a real discount comrade!

Tyranny of distance: The renewable power disconnectThe renewable energy boom may be going to waste because the best place to put wind and solar is too far away to connect to the grid. this is the same grid that supplies coal generated electricity, now? Exact same issues surely, irrespective of how the power is generated? What rubbish. Did anyone consider this earlier? The 'boom' is not going to waste. Taxpayers are still stumping up billions to left wing idealogues to line their pockets. Wind & solar power are a state-sponsored scam, working beautifully for the scammers.

Energy ministers to talk power pricesEnergy Minister Angus Taylor will meet with state and territory counterparts to talk about lowering electricity prices and ensuring more reliable power. Why? What the hell can this prime goose Taylor do about it. The only way they can control pricing (now not feasible) is to unprivatise the National Energy grid (No prizes who privatised it in the first place and it wasn’t Labor) Companies working for their shareholders won’t listen to the government

Warnings not possible before Victoria's power outage: energy operatorChandra Ojha would have liked a warning 30 minutes before the power was cut to his Ormond home - he could have moved his family out and his daughter may not have got heatstroke. I love these fake photos. It is always the water coolers steam against the red evening sky to make it look like a doomsday. Only scam needs such fake photos. Stop whinging 'services were restored to most of these households within a few hours' it happens once maybe twice a year... Remember the SEC? Used to fail several times a summer...remember when we lost Gas for 2 weeks in winter? Build up some resilience people and stop complaining !!
