The Victorian government committed to underwrite another six large-scale solar farms and several big batteries on Friday in its second big renewable energy auction.
The six new projects to emerge from Victoria’s second renewable auction aim to provide a combined 623 megawatts of renewable capacity and four big batteries to help meet the state’s target of 100 per cent renewable electricity for government operations by 2025.Together, the projects will generate nearly 1460 gigawatt-hours of renewable energy per year, enough to power 300,000 homes.
the sheer number of workers and the quantity of new equipment needed to support the $US5 trillion investment, which the International Energy Agency estimates will be needed globally between now and 2030, will hamper Australia’s efforts.underwrote an initial 928 megawatts of large-scale wind and solar energy projects.
Octopus Investments’ Fulham solar farm and battery will be built in the Gippsland, west of Fulham, and Frasers Solar Farm by South Energy, north of Traralgon.“We are very well positioned to contribute to adding renewable energy power plants to the generation mix,” Mr Du said.

Kelsian’s ‘battery on wheels’ wants to suck up powerTransport companies that operate electric-powered buses and trams can help balance renewable power grids by recharging batteries with excess energy, says Kelsian Group boss Clint Feuerherdt. Put an engineering cap on: (a) Is it better to have a 'Bicycle Infrastructure' instead - no electricity needed. (b) DoD and constant recharging reduce battery life. (c) Imagine the wasted energy needed to carry those heavy battery every day for excess. 1/2 As long there are no government subsidies then feel free to do so as Market generally have self-correcting mechanism for these kinds of behaviors. 2/2

The LNP really is the party of the people LMFAO Revenue would probably increase because fare dodgers dont pay anything now but they'd almost certainly pay $2 to avoid a fine. So instead of about 50% of Victorians paying for travel on public transport, maybe 95% would pay the $2. The Liberals are irrelevant now and even more so after November 26.
