Claim: Government Mandates can Help Australia to Seize Renewable Energy Export Opportunities
Essay by Eric Worrall
If it is a profitable opportunity, why is government intervention required to make it happen?
…

Indeed.
In reality, it’s just an excuse to further impoverish the Aussie taxpayer and direct their hard-earned money toward Elite subsidy harvesters who produce nothing worthwhile except their own enrichment, and in a free market would produce nothing whatsoever in the same “business” if it were not for subsidies.
I’m sick of hearing Australia will become a “renewable energy superpower”.
It’s a delusional or deliberate lie.
What’s Australia going to do with all these masses of “free renewable energy”? And where is it? Because the more “free” “renewables” we get, the more expensive electricity becomes and the more our economy is destroyed.
The most fundamental input to the economy, electricity and other energy is already priced beyond economic usefulness and affordability and is getting worse by the day. It has already massively destroyed the economy and Australia is one of the only, if not the only Western country in which the standard of living is diminishing. How much lower does the Government want it to go?
Imagine how bad it must be if even the Government propaganda unit, Their ABC admits to the dire state of the Australian economy?
Remember, that’s the ABC saying that. Imagine how bad it really is!

Net zero is Australia’s biggest self-imposed economic burden
When I began writing about economics at The Australian more than a decade ago, these pages were filled with optimism:
the resource boom was in full swing, the phrase “miracle economy” still prevalent. If we had a problem it was a “two-speed” economy, and an Australian dollar that was almost as valuable as the greenback.
Fast-forward to now and there’s only one speed – and it’s too often in reverse. National income per person has fallen for nine of the past 11 quarters. Australia is dropping down global living standards league tables.
Our country excels at self-imposed economic burdens: an excessively regulated labour market that throttles small business, a compulsory saving system that takes money from workers when they need it most, and a shockingly high – and growing – income tax burden that acts as a de facto prohibition on innovation and as a powerful incentive for young, bright Australians to emigrate.
But perhaps the most damaging, and indeed ridiculous, self-harm of all is the determination to reach net-zero carbon dioxide emissions by 2050.

I was wondering how we export renewable energy in our effort to be a renewable energy superpower.
From the CSIRO
Good luck with that.

US energy expert Robert Bryce warns Australia is ‘acting like an energy weakling’ despite being a global powerhouse in resources
A US energy expert has delivered a blunt warning on rising energy costs, policy failures, and the nation’s refusal to harness its full energy potential.
Robert Bryce, a veteran energy analyst and journalist who has testified before the US Congress and written for the Wall Street Journal, is currently touring Australia with the Institute of Public Affairs (IPA).
During his visit, Mr Bryce did not mince words, branding Australia’s approach to net zero as “madness” and “reckless”.
“You’re an energy superpower, and yet you act like an energy weakling. I just don’t get it,” Mr Bryce, pointing to Australia’s vast natural resources and puzzling refusal to fully utilise them.
In particular, Mr Bryce was sharply critical of Australia’s pledge to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.
“You’re pledging to zero out your emissions by 2050 — that’s next week, in terms of planning purposes,” he said.
“You export seven times more coal than you consume, and you’re blowing up your coal plants.”
“You export three times more natural gas in the form of LNG than you consume, and yet you won’t drill for it onshore.”
Mr Bryce expressed disbelief at Australia’s contradictory position on nuclear power, describing it as illogical to say “yes to net zero and no to nuclear power” when the country holds nearly a third of the world’s uranium reserves.
“Australia’s emissions have gone from about 1.5% to 1% of the global total, while China and India together have gone from about 18% to 40%, and that percentage is rising.”
Calling for a return to common sense, Mr Bryce said the first step should be to “stop doing stupid things” such as shutting down coal plants prematurely.

The delusional woke at the CSIRO still haven’t figured out the “Green hydrogen” is just a leftist wet dream that isn’t feasible as discussed in depth many times by real energy experts.
“Exporting via undersea electricity transmission cables” would be a reference to the insane proposed Sun Cable Project pushed by loony billionaire Mike Cannon Brooks to export solar energy harnessed in a 12 hectare solar “farm” in the NT to Singapore via a 4000+km cable.
Both completely uneconomical, delusional climate cult solutions to non problems.

“Government Mandates can Help Australia”
That’s the first lie and its lies from then on down! Govt mandates help the politicians and impoverish the people, there is nothing a Govt can do better than private industry can, except force people to give up their wealth.

Planners wish to end the alleged blight of “sprawl”, to end the reliance on fossil fuel-powered cars, and to so end the aspirational Australian dream. By building high rises everywhere, especially near public transport nodes. To turn Australian cities into what they take Europe to be. Walkable centres. Light rail vanity projects everywhere. Public green spaces. Vibrancy. Low carbon emissions. Wins everywhere, for the converted.
They think this will work.
And developers just want to make a financial killing, without any interest in the social and cultural outcomes. They will go along with anything.
320
There are very good reasons for urban intensification. One you have omitted is that Australia’s most productive agricultural land has slowly but surely been converted to suburban sprawl.
828
Why urban intensification?
Australia has one of the lowest population densities in the world. That’s a good thing. Why should we live like we’re in Hong Kong, despite the Left’s reverence for all things Chicomm.
And just think how much extra land could have been irrigated if hundreds of billions hadn’t been thrown away on solar and wind, and flood mitigation could have been done as well. Too late now. The kitty is empty.
And fossil fuels are great for cars, especially in large countries with long distances to travel like Australia. And coal and gas are great for electricity as well, especially as Australia (most present company excepted) doesn’t consider itself sufficiently mature for nuclear and/or is terrified of the idea. There are no suitable replacements for fossil fuels. Not wind. Not solar. Not “green” hydrogen. Not ammonia. Not Unicorn flatulence.

I think this is the first time that I have agreed with something that Simon has written.
For anyone who drives to the city centres in Oz will attest, the urban sprawl is growing. It is not a grand solution. 50+km of sprawl.
Well planned, well built high rise accommodation is required. It needs to be well placed, near to the places of employment and it needs to be central to offer access to multiple opportunities. Transport to and from these hubs is an obvious requirement too, and should be aligned as the development progresses. For too long the infrastructure has fallen behind the sprawl, often built out or built over before implementation, requiring expensive tunnels and train tracks of the never, never.
I for one would love to see the fringe suburbs bulldozed back into the ground, establishing a green fringe around the cities. This sprawl does nothing other than reduce the transport speeds from freeway bliss to commuter crawls. Ask anyone who lives in these new suburbs, 50km from the city, whether they enjoy their 1 hour commute in the morning and the same at night. All for a piece of garden too small to justify a lawnmower.
And for info, I live 250+km from Melbourne and do not miss the place in the slightest.

Living in Germany, about 20 km out from Frankfurt, the location was a very compact village of around 60,000 people – you could walk through the village, from one side to the other, in 30-40 mins. And 2-3 kms away was the next village, separated by either crops or sustainable forests. The countryside between the major centres seemed to be carpeted in these small compact villages, separated by green spaces. Appeared to be a great way to combat urban sprawl.
30
“Well planned, well built high rise accommodation is required.”
No, this outdated idea of a ‘center of town’ needs to be thrown away and the office blocks for paper-pushers spread through the suburbs. We have no manufacturing so we don’t need to worry about the ‘working man’ living by his factory.
Without Council’s regulations and ‘urban planners’ with their fresh degrees from the University of Socialism the private sector would solve the problem by itself. Even the internet itself should have made stacking high-rise paper-pushers cheek by jowl redundant, there is no reason for it at all.
20
Ahhh the hypocrisy. The great solar/wind factory lover suddenly shows concern about “productive agricultural land” what a joke
211
Yes, we looked at our farming and decided we were not doing the environment any favors. We had diesel tractors, diesel harvesters, diesel trucks transporting stuff, fossil fuel derived fertilizers to improve crop yields, all the ways of running a modern, efficient farm. So we decided to move to a farm entirely run on dragon breath and unicorn farts. We were going to try and fertilize the fields using the unicorn poo, but the damned things only sh*t rainbows.
100
I didn’t leave anything out – this was an article share, something that I found challenged my own perceptions – I thought the crew over here might enjoy it too.
As an adult, I have a visceral ‘urban sprawl = bad’ feeling. I developed this – as a child, travelling into the city from a rural home, I can remember being so proud that ‘our City’ was getting bigger and bigger. (I guess while you are growing yourself, growth all seems good).
I would say that urban ‘sprawl’ (or maybe just geographic increase) is more of a challenge for available industrial land than agricultural land – there are challenges with people and agriculture, yes, but most people are happier with a house near farmland than a house near factories.
I also find it hypocrisy to hold both a need for ‘heritage’ architecture to be preserved and prevention of urban sprawl – can’t have your cake and eat it. That was what Joh and Dean Brothers were about in the 80s – preventing urban sprawl.
I would also say that they should include country towns in their sprawl measures – I grew up in places that have sprawled nowhere in 50 years and in fact shrunk over the last 100 or so years.

Speaking of cake eaters – the sprawling Parliament and Council complexes in the middle of most cities – put them into highrise and there is an immediate set of inner-city plots for apartments.

Crime is up in the Australian fiefdom of Victoriastan, a worker’s paradise (at least for CFMEU union thugs).
It’s what happens when you either don’t bother arresting offenders, or if you do bother, you let them out on bail, multiple times, and never jail or otherwise punish them.
Frankly, as per the article below, I’m surprised it’s “only” up by 15% or 17% depending upon if you take population increase into account.
I think the Government is probably lying or misrepresenting these figures though. Crimes aren’t recorded unless the police arrest and process someone and if they don’t get arrested in the first place, miraculously, the crime rate seems lower.
It’s only amount of time before Green/Labor/Teal in Australia decriminalises certain crimes like shop stealing as the DemonRATs do in the United States so they can further lower crime statistics and destroy society.
210
Why do you go to the Guardian for news? You only have to walk the streets to see the crime. Drug deals in plain sight occur in Dandenong, Footscray and I’d bet almost anywhere that people gather for extended periods without any obvious means of employment.
What this country needs is true crime statistics. The insurance agents may be a good place to start, that would cover the property issues.
90
Maybe more a matter of showing that even the most lefty news rags are starting to admit there is a problem.
60
Unfortunately, Ian, high excess rates on insurance policies will be masking the statistics somewhat. Many people doing it tough will be reducing premiums and accepting the resulting higher excess. Then less petty crime gets reported.

The Victoriastan Liberals, fake conservatives, agreed to loan Persutto $1.55 million toward his paying of Moira Deemibg’s legal bills after he defamed her.
If Persutto was made bankrupt, he would have been rendered ineligible to sit in parliament. Yes, they have standards, you know! It’s just that we never see them…
So his stupidity is being rewarded. He had multiple opportunities to withdraw his false claims about her but instead kept on repeating them.
I’m not sure how keeping Persutto in parliament helps the Libs anyway. They have so few numbers, what difference does the loss of another make? In any case their anti-energy policies are much the same as Labor’s.

It helps by further ensuring the Libs remain unelectable.

The new Liberal leadership got off to a good start . ( sarcasm).
The first speech I saw on TV with the deputy “ leader “. was in front of the lefties 3 flag
array. Totally opposite of Dutton’s one flag policy.
They’ve also reaffirmed their commitment to net zero & appeared to be quite comfortable with Snake Charmers capital gains tax on unrealised profits and comments on antisemitism have been conspicuous by their absence. Judging by the non existent comment on immigration they agree on that as well.
If you thought Dutton’s leadership was too far left you’re in for some really nasty awakenings under this lot doing opposition impressions.

In fact, it is very likely old days where the faceless men determined policy.

The Bank of Zambia did a review about a decade ago now of the (very limited) consumer credit market (primarily civil service payroll-linked loans)
A policewoman in her loan application when asked how she would pay back the loan filled in that she would ‘set up a road block’. She was given the loan.
Surely he would be able to put something like that down in his application eg ‘I will sell my votes in Parliament’

Hi Jo
Love your work. Regarding your post “In publicity stunt, Australia offers “climate visas” to islanders of Tuvalu, which is not sinking”
The height above sea level of Tuvalu rather than just the area would clinch this argument. ie theoretically an island could be gaining area but losing altitude.
Any thoughts/information on this that you could publish?
