Peterc005,
But what happened the day/week/month after, when the wind stopped blowing for a while --- ???

Did you see the pictures of the totally destroyed solar farms in Jamaica??

Do you understand what is meant by dispatchable power ---- the reason modern coal fired power stations are being built in Germany??

Do you understand how much of Germany's power is coming from French nuclear, since Greens politics shut down nuclear in Germany? Which, silly though it is, is why "coal" is replacing nuclear, to a degree. in Germany??

Tootle pip!!

PS: Regardless of the fate of Adani, in my view opening up north Queensland is a good move, Queensland quite accidentally is already the most decentralised state, the "subsidised" railway line will be open to all traffic, avoiding the WA type fights over access to company owned lines.
