A large collection of articles pertaining to the ongoing ‘Energy Transition’ in any of a number of ways.
Specific sub-categories relate to such things as Coal Closure, and other aspects of the transition.
Some quick calculations performed today to help me try to understand what the future might hold, in terms of battery storage (given I've been asked to talk batteries today at the National Consumer Roundtable...
Following on from my earlier post about my own experiences as a small power generator (with solar PV at home), I've taken a broader look at solar PV production NEM-wide, including over the corresponding...
Our guest author, Allan O'Neil, poses a number of questions about the recently proposed "National Energy Guarantee" (NEG)
My sense is that we, the voting public, are Villains #2 in running the energy transition train off the tracks.
First up in our listing of Villains in relation to the unfolding energy crisis are, of course, our political leaders - State and Federal, past, present and prospective.
A multi-layered energy crisis is upon us. I've identified 10 "root causes" (or "villains") that have each played key roles in the way in which our energy transition has run off the rails.
Some quick thoughts about the comparison being made by others between two ageing coal-fired power stations (Liddell power station in NSW and the Muja A&B stations in the SWIS of WA)
Guest author, Andrew Bonwick, posts his thoughts on a range of challenges confronting us in this energy transition.
[PART 2 of] a post by guest author, Bruce Miller – which was initially posted on LinkedIn as one piece, but which has been broken into two on WattClarity as each part serves different...
It was inevitable that Semi-Scheduled plant would start to experience times when they are dispatched down. It's a big prompt to take next steps up the learning curve.
Some thoughts about challenges with intermittent solar PV, triggered by this week's Solar Eclipse in North America
A few thoughts about how energy users (including each of us) are the main victims in the unfolding train wreck that's become of this energy transition off the rails.
A timely reminder from Rod Sims (at the ACCC) this week that there are a number of factors driving electricity price higher - not just a single "smoking gun"
An energy crisis (like a train wreck) is upon us.
A belated link to the Finkel Review.
A record of the closure of Hazelwood this week - and some initial thoughts on the implications
Two slides (from BNEF and AEMO) that provide some context on the energy transition
A figurative illustration of the broad range of people we're increasingly seeing weighing into the discussion about the future of the energy sector. Itself a challenge for the transition.
Quick note about energy transition
The Oakley Greenwood report 'Current Status of DR in the NEM' was completed for the AEMC on 30th June 2016
