[QUOTE="Y Fan Wen, post: 7551152, member: 741"] 'An independent review by consultancy firm Aurecon found the Tesla battery has saved SA consumers more than $150 million since it was built in 2017. "We expect these savings will continue to grow," Mr Pellekaan said.' I don't see the price of labour having much effect on the electricity network and depending on the latitude of the country you would vary the mix of solar and wind with Australia going more for solar and GB going more for wind which is what is happening. The hardest thing to get your head round when considering the power mix is that all the running costs of renewables is in the capital cost of construction. Running costs of conventional is fuel cost. That means the marginal cost of production in renewables is much nearer zero. I have 40 years experience of this as that is the age of my hydro set. So possibly it is easier for me to get what Tony Seba is trying to say. [/QUOTE]
