So many great inventions
We will have any number of ways to de fossil fuel our economy

Nuclear!
Maybe take some notice how it’s working out for the rest of the world who are going to the proven failed renewables!
Europe, UK, California to name a few, the teen energy csnt keep up and bills sky rocketing!
In Australia our bills are sky rocketing, black outs are becoming more common as we close dated coal power stations

They have run nuclear in submarines and ships since the 50s and nuclear supplies around 30% of the world’s total power and is the cleanest form of energy.
Thinking a windmill or solar panel is environmentally friendly is a clear indication of a person knowing nothing of the topic
Not for the past 13 years.

It's a good point. We've had the technology for at least 50 years but because of an incident in which the socialists stuffed around that technology has been reserved for mobile war platforms.
About fifty years and one month since Chernobyl was built. Three years after humans first walked on the moon.
That's how long we've had the technology to have zero emission power on demand and reliable.

I have solar roof top, so I pay about $10 per bill, soon I will have it down to zero and I'll be getting credits
Now as to the news, why yes, yes I do*

So you have access to the grid for nothing?
In a statement ... Carnegie CEO Jonathan Fiévez said that programs like the EuropeWave PCP showed the urgency and the opportunity to drive wave energy and accelerate global efforts towards decarbonisation.

“Being selected to continue into Phase 2 of the program is a huge endorsement of the applicability of the CETO technology and validates our commercialisation pathway,” said Carnegie CEO Jonathan Fiévez on Friday.
“This has been an incredible journey. Our fantastic team and consortium of partners have worked relentlessly to complete CETO’s design and tank testing campaign and test the technology’s performance in the European wave conditions.
“A number of significant improvements were made in optimising CETO’s performance and cost of energy during Phase 1, which will help in the next stage,” Fiévez said.
“Interest is building and it is only a matter of time for wave energy to become a key component in the renewable energy mix.
Carnegie’s success in Europe will be welcomed by management and shareholders, after a choppy time in Australia with demonstration projects, finances and government support.
The company, which started its life as Carnegie Wave Power, went into voluntary administration in early 2019 after a series of blowouts and losses in former subsidiary microgrid business Energy Made Clean and the last-minute termination of a $16 million project contract in WA.
Carnegie was reinstated to the ASX in October of that same year, with then chairman Terry Stinson conceding the business had come “back from the brink” and learned some “painful but important lessons that are not soon forgotten.”
These days, as well as continuing to work away at commercialising its large-scale CETO wave energy generators, Carnegie is also working on a renewable energy solution for offshore facilities, starting with the moored vessels used in the aquaculture sector.
The MoorPower technology is being tested through a $3.4 million scaled demonstrator project, sited offshore from Carnegie’s Australian headquarters in North Fremantle, Western Australia.
That project is being delivered in collaboration with a consortium of partners including two of Australia’s largest aquaculture companies, Huon Aquaculture and Tassal Group, with $1.35 million in funding from the Tasmania-based Blue Economy Cooperative Research Centre.
Hope springs eternal.

Yes, I have no bananas
You arent the first to deny the cost of infrastructure to deliberately mislead. You do more harm to the renewable energy call than good.
Billion-dollar shock as energy grid renewal costs become clear
Australian consumers have been told to brace for big hikes in their power bills after a watchdog revealed the true cost of overhauling the grid to deal with the renewable energy transition.
"The period between now and 2027 is pivotal," Mr Edwell said.
"We've got to get it right and we've got to make sure the grid is in as good a shape as it can be to enable this transformation to continue at pace.
"That's the broad context and it's a context which is repeatable across the nation.'

'Mr Edwell, who was also the inaugural chairman of the Australian Energy Regulator, said it was also a sign of what was to come around the country, where poles-and-wires companies face a race against time and a huge increase in costs to make sure they can keep up with the energy transition.

$9b just for WA and just for the network upgrades to handle renewables, not even for the actual generation of renewable energy?
Or the $9b includes the renewable energy for WA's needs ?

Thats just WA. Also, should they not have spent hundreds of billions keeping businesses open for 2 years?
I do question the $38+billion to companies that didn't have a downturn in turnover and did make a profit.
On my calculations, that $38 billion would put a very sizeable dint in the network rewring. Plus having the added benefit of having something to show for it!

In one tiny German town, nobody worries about energy bills
While most Europeans are watching their energy bills soar as the war in Ukraine drives up the price of natural gas, oil and electricity, the tiny German town of Feldheim has been energy self-sufficient for a decade.
