agreed. The more I read, the more it looks like a biggish pumped hydro plant could be the real game changer that would make wind and solar into grownup power sources. Maybe the feds are onto something with the Snowy scheme - provided they are fair dinkum.

couldn't agree more Peter. sorry my post was bit aggressive, but I saw red at the cynicism of the Sunday Mail journos - they really are treating us as mugs and they should do better. Making up a conspiracy like that is really bottom of the barrel when there are so many good news stories emerging on the power front.
