The even more interesting bit. The current spot prices in mainland States. Negative prices mean retailers are paid to use the electricity. NSW and Queensland both at huge positive prices. I’ve circled in red the proportion of renewables being used to supply each State right now. I’m sure you can see the pattern there. The States with lots of renewables have by far the cheapest electricity, even at this critical high demand time. Not just cheap, they’ll pay you to take it. And South Australia, who cop so much criticism from anti-renewables morons - have a look. Smashing everybody.
