A solar panel will last probably 50+ years. A coal plant will replace every moving part at least once within 20yrs. Its only the land and building which last 50+ years. Perhaps time you caught up with the real world and then you will understand that a solar panel will outlast a coal plant by a long time. Its simply because the solar panel has NO moving parts. We install Solar Panels because they work and are low cost to run and last a very long time.

Wind Turbines have produced power across Australia for every second of the last 10 years. Not a single second where we were not getting wind power somewhere in Australia. Now try thinking again about why a 1,000 turbines might be different to one Turbine. We have a 4000km plus front to average the wind across.

What is the total cost , Casanova Bowdn doesnt know or are .Dutton should do a running cost and energy created in Parliament every week .the voting public wont stand for it .
This is all the result of a Fire that the CFS volunteers tried to fight in country South Australia a few months ago. The Fire was caused by a Windmill turbine....one of the big ones, catching fire and lighting the surrounding scrub and all. It burnt 60+ or so Hectares of rural land until it was under control...and they had to prevent the other windmills from catching alight. It was a great idea on paper, but these things are not suitable for this country. Why smaller domestic ones for each house are not promoted, I don't know.
More over by the time a Wind Turbine has been Manufactured, Transported, and erected it cannot and will not pay for itself in its life time without subsidization and that Information was imparted to me by and Electrical technician who works on Wind Turbines!!!!! FACT
Total rubbish and why would you believe a electrical technician when you can look the information up for yourself. The energy required to mine, build, ship and install a Wind Turbine will be repaid in less than 2 years with ZERO subsidy. The world is not stupid. We build them because they work and deliver low cost electricity.
These wind turbines are disgusting 🤮 what happens to our marine life when these winds and motion affect their balance and motion People near them are reporting motion sickness headaches vertigo and the list goes on
Simple truth. They are so successful and with so few problems we are going to build a lot lot more because they work so well. People living near them are absolutely fine and most who originally complained don't even notice them now. Its all a big beat up and once in they are fine.
ftgj high voltage transmission lines always been there, regardless of green bs. Nowadays they are bigger and more dangerous, but its technology advance.
Renewables require 24/7 backup as they are inherently likely to produce no power indiscriminately according to the weather through lack of sunlight and SUFFICIENT wind. So running two forms of power production instead of just one. Makes perfect sense to Politicians.
Never are the costs of transmission lines and 'backup' idling baseload taken in concideration when the 'greens' talk about wind&solar. Even the cheapest windmill and solar-PV add costs to the total system that just works fine without them.
And Australia still does not know what this Labor n Greens renewable policy is going to cost, compared to Nuclear? Please let everybody know, then we can make judgement! And

The energy required to mine, build, ship and install a Wind Turbine will be repaid in less than 2 years with ZERO subsidy. The world is not stupid. We build them because they work and deliver low cost electricity.
Well done CFA❤❤❤
this is absurd..
What does it take to stop all the stupidity - probably long, long power cuts that just roll on and on.....................
These wind turbines are disgusting 🤮 what happens to our marine life when these winds and motion affect their balance and motion
People near them are reporting motion sickness headaches vertigo and the list goes on
Yes, many people have been saying the same thing for quite some time now.
Simple truth. They are so successful and with so few problems we are going to build a lot lot more because they work so well. People living near them are absolutely fine and most who originally complained don't even notice them now. Its all a big beat up and once in they are fine.

Do you have one near you ?
They are a terrible monstrosity that I don't want near me !!
It’s ok Bowen will handle it.
Someone should handle Bowen - rather firmly, one might say.
ftgj high voltage transmission lines always been there, regardless of green bs. Nowadays they are bigger and more dangerous, but its technology advance.
There has been little or no wind for a several days, we had very heavy fog and frosts to prove that!
Maybe Albo and Bowen can fight the fires on the wind turbines,,,they are used to holding their hose !!😂
Sanity. I love it. j.
Me too!
Renewables require 24/7 backup as they are inherently likely to produce no power indiscriminately according to the weather through lack of sunlight and SUFFICIENT wind. So running two forms of power production instead of just one. Makes perfect sense to Politicians.
CFA could of done more with this strike it should of been a call to action by all citizens to stop the destruction of our country
Never are the costs of transmission lines and 'backup' idling baseload taken in concideration when the 'greens' talk about wind&solar. Even the cheapest windmill and solar-PV add costs to the total system that just works fine without them.
And Australia still does not know what this Labor n Greens renewable policy is going to cost, compared to Nuclear? Please let everybody know, then we can make judgement! And
