(Apr. 30, 2019) — It is 8pm on a big footy night. It is frosty with no wind. All the heaters, air-cons and TV’s are drawing power.

Suddenly it is half time. All the jugs are then switched on to make coffee.

Not one amp of electricity is coming from wind/solar plants.

What will keep the lights on?
