Black coal generation hits new low, as wind and solar reshape Australian grid Flickr/David Clarke Giles Parkinson 28 September 2020 0 Comments The re-shaping of Australia’s main grid continues apace, with black coal generation setting a new record low in the National Electricity Market, and the combined output of wind and solar matching the combined output of brown coal, black coal and gas on Saturday. With the addition of hydro, they did – and provided 51% of net demand as pumped hydro and batteries chose a cheap time to charge. The new record was set at 1pm on Saturday afternoon, when rooftop solar was its peak. The share of wind and solar might have been higher, and the amount of coal generation lower, had not around nine large scale solar farms in Queensland switched off due to constraints or because of negative prices. As illustrated by this graph below from Dylan McConnell, from the Climate and Energy Institute, the output of black coal generators was little more than one third of their registered capacity. Some coal generators, like Liddell, are operating at reduced capacity due to their age and imminent closure. Others are starting to make a habit of dialling down their output when rooftop solar provides much of the daytime needs. As this next chart shows, rooftop solar is no longer taking small bites out of black coal generation, it is now taking large chunks. And around the time that this occurred, wind and solar were producing 49.2 per cent of total output, equal to the combined output of brown and black coal, and various gas generation sources. As time moves on, and as more wind and solar is connected to the grid, as well as more storage, this share will dramatically increase. As Paul McArdle, over at Watt Clarity, noted that Queensland, which has the most rooftop solar PV (and the most large scale solar too), reached its lowest level of black coal generation in 16 years – just over 3,800MW on Saturday, then went even lower on Sunday. reneweconomy.com.au

<<Do not use hydroxychloroquine for COVID: National Taskforce>> Thank you for the shill news of the day. Why is it that 99% of the media prints nothing but a pack of lies every single day? However, the strain is beginning to tell. Even the UK's Guardian Newspaper, one of the worst for spinning fawning bullchit on behalf of the 0.1 percenters on a daily basis (for years !) has started to buckle under the weight of truth. theguardian.com /snippett <<Lord Thomas of Cwmgiedd, the former lord chief justice of England and Wales, has called for greater parliamentary scrutiny of the government’s emergency coronavirus legislation because vital freedoms are being “curtailed”. His comments follow a lament by Lady Hale, the last president of the supreme court, that parliament “surrendered” control of its constitutional role subjecting legislation to effective scrutiny at the start of lockdown. She described the regulations as “draconian” and said it was “not surprising the police were as confused as the public as to what was law and what was not”.>> /end snippett The Guardian website pleads for your money. I strongly recommend you don't send them any, it will only encourage them. It's better they go bust and the hacks that work there can retrain and get jobs as real journalists. And of course, no mention of the other legal heavy weight that is coming in put his shoulder to the wheel in defence of humanity. Message 32955155 lots more talent coming on stream to break the will of the Face Mask Fascists, from all political parties. The abusive relationship. There are the myriad of shills of course, misinforming the public both in the media and in academia but I think you will they are going to be swamped no matter how much corrupt money the o.1 percenters flush into the system. Here is REALITY, no matter how you deny it. evidencenotfear.com It's revolution time.
