BOOM!
South Australia's power prices have plummeted as they near 100% renewables, proving to the world that relying on wind and solar with battery back-up is possible, more reliable and costs people less.
THIS is how we avoid the next oil crisis.

@JulianOliver don't believe the climate hype re: Australia's "massive" renewables use nearing 100% renewables. Australia is at 9% renewables as a % of total energy consumption, and is the largest user of diesel per capita in the world ⬇️
@gusseting @JulianOliver
Some nuance: if that 9% figure is correct, it would be skewed by the massive mining (and to a lesser extent) farming industries. There is very little cargo shipped by rail, with some ocean going traffic - most is moved by road in trucks.
The electricity grids are much greener than total energy use, with rooftop solar providing a lot of savings.
