Renewables fail to pay their way

The problem with continued calls for ‘sense’ in the Australian energy market including a unified national policy is that any such policy would require concessions that the Greens do not want to consider.

By far the most vocal group in the debate, and seeming to all but dictate Labor party policy in the area, the Greens do not want to be told that a lot of conventional power will still be required for decades to come to balance and back up all the renewable energy being put on grids.
