There's also tidal. 8+ metres at Broome and very reliable. Wind doesn't NEED strong winds. Focussed SOLAR can provide extremely HIGH temperatures of say, SALT. You can do a Lot with that. WA is NOT on the THE grid. Properly Organised it Has Great variation of clean energy potential.. We've hardly scratched the surface with Pumped Hydro. Whatever WE do transmission over significant distances will Be Part of it But stand alone solar and Batteries may be an "off grid "answer for a lot of the dry inland. Nev

I don't REALLY believe America is Over riding us IF we Eliminate the Trump effect. We buy Nothing like the Amount of stuff from them that we used to. . That's THEIR Problem. Not Ours. Our dependency on THEM when Trump is so Erratic is a Cause for Concern. THAT NEEDS working through and careful handling. Thoughtful diplomacy well researched. Not Breast Beating public displays of Alpha Male Behaviour.. Nev

Only gas has quick response and not so much if steam is involved, Baseload Power is yesterdays world. We can't keep adding CO2 to the Atmosphere and the Oceans.
