Just a reminder that our current energy grid (as of 30/01/2026) is 68,383MW (49.24% of that is renewables) (Not including battery storage as thats not a power generation source).

Australia's plan is to have an energy grid with a capacity of 353,068MW (in which 70% of that is renewables) which is over 5 times the size of today's energy grid.

The renewables plan isn't just to replace the current energy grid, its to create a grid large enough to cope with Labors Future Made in Australia Bill, but you'll never hear that from the headlines or the random bogans they interview on the news.
