REZ are a great idea but why not put them in semi arid areas? The cost of transmission is easily offset by the cheaper land.
And while agrivoltaics can work, it's not suitable for all areas.
Walcha is an area of outstanding natural beauty as well, so not sure how this will integrate.
I was recently at a festival in Aberdeen (Just north west of Muswellbrook) and watched "EnergyCo", who sponsored the event, sell this to numerous people who were stopping at the stall. They had signs and salesman pushing this on the community. They even sponsored the event. Then what did I see? Numerous locals tell them that it was "great to see them here" and what they were doing was "important work".
So the problem isn't just your government. It's your people. It's Australians doing what they always do. Fall at the knees of government and obey their every command. The people of the New England deserve what's happening. They won't even stand up for their homes and their land.
One important point this malevolent little s—t avoided is as follows…..all the wind and solar farms and batteries will be on PRIVATE LAND…the landowners have negotiated long term leases with the energy companies….this is not the government …it’s private commercial activity. Did mr Cameron Greig go to the land owners and say you can’t do this ?….no mention of how much the landowners owners owners are making…which they have a right to do.
Are we all stupid, where are our electronic masterminds? Why are we not using MAGNETIC ENERGY, CLEAN AND GREEN no cutting down trees destroying natural habitats, lasts forever zero emissions. Toxic landfill is what you end up with here, all needing to be replaced 10-20years,
well my fellow Australians are we just going to sit back and allow this destruction of our farming land and bush land our wildlife our country to continue or are we going stand up and be counted and fight back !!!!!!!!!! we all need help sometimes to protect what is worth protecting lets hope someone can step forward and show the rest of us where to start !!!!!!!!!
The solar farm at Wellington NSW creates its own climate. It keeps getting bigger & there are over 30 wind turbines & yet bills go up, rebates drop, the country goes further in debt. Now I've seen clips of the removal of trees to put in solar farms? WTF?
NSW rural residents pay more for electricity despite hosting the coal and gas power stations, hydro schemes, wind farms, and large solar farms.
