https://theconversation.com/white-elephant-hardly-snowy-2-0-will-last-150-years-and-work-with-batteries-to-push-out-gas-267413

another marvellous essay by prof andrew blakers explaining the massive benefits coming our way from #snowyhydro2 . i wish to zarquon that the myriad MSM & political critics [aka, ignoramuses] would bother scratching below the surface of "aha gotcha - cost blowout!" to see & report the longterm perspective.

all the current MSM mouth-frothing about the beetrooter... taking all the column inches... & wot's not that is instead more frothing about imminent orange elbow tango. so wot's not being talked about instead?

  • Greens & Prog Indies
  • climate crisis & Straya's active role is escalating it atm
  • proper tax reform
  • proper housing reform
  • proper social support reform
  • etc

tis ucken pathetic.

Thank you Andrew Blakers [professor of engineering, Australian National University] ✅ Personally i remain excited by the huge prospects availed by Strayan #PumpedHydro, not least ofc being #SnowyHydro2, & i am so thoroughly sick of the MSM pointscoring superficiality of cheap potshots at transient project difficulties. It's a major engineering project, you fuckheads, & by definition involves many uncertainties that could only be quantified & resolved on the job... just like ALL major engineering projects. It's what we engineers do, ffs... scope designs, build in contingencies, but well aware that unforeseen problems are inevitable & grist to our mill. The point is that the final objective is so massively important for our decarbonised future, decade after decade, long after the temporary construction challenges were overcome.

Fuck off, pig-ignorant naysayers. 🤬🖕

Renew Economy · Snowy 2.0: Energy storage for one cent per person per dayThe cost increases means that Snowy 2.0 has gone from bargain of the century to merely a very good technical and economic investment.

i'd be heaps more sympathetic had it not been for the fact that for decades tons of farmers opposed climate science, denied the climate crisis, & kept voting Liebs & Nuts. Even now, many of them are actively blocking, otherwise campaigning against, renewable energy projects & infrastructure. Ffs.

@trib@aus.social This mob is simply pathetic across the board. Where not acting as fully-owned slaves of the fossilfools, they are otherwise entirely milquetoast & inexplicably still terrified of annoying Liebs & Mudrake. I voted Greens not these oxygen-thieves, as i learned their true nature several decades ago, but i hope all those who did vote Labs are now consumed in guilt for what they've done. Bastards.

I expect the appropriate governmental response to this urgent & overdue national infrastructure transport crisis, is to approve another dozen fossilfool projects.

I just don't care how much "analysis" is done on / about these barely-descended ape-forms, to try to understand them or contextualise them. It's just super simple -- if you look at a wind turbine, call it a windmill, & ascribe deep Illuminati conspiracy bullshit, then you're either a malevolent ne'er-do-well, or an unrecoverable moron. In any event, i want nothing to do with you.
