> And by the way, this isn't just Germany. It's every country that doesn't have access to hydro or nuclear. I don't believe Australia plans on going to Nuclear any time soon. For those of you interested you can see a complete breakdown of our power generation here: https://opennem.org.au/energy/sa1/?range=1d&interval=30m Of interest is SA which has a wind/solar/gas mix, Tasmania which is Hydro/Wind, and Vic/NSW/Qld who are all still heavily using fossil fuels. |

Yeah, so they'll use natural gas and coal as baseload.

Expand the range to more than a day, and yeah, Gas+Imports(Coal?) is ~40%, so you're stuck on fossil fuels forever.
South Australia is also so small that it's almost pointless to use as a data point.
