The problem with the ALP as I've said before, they have great big picture ideas, it's the implementation they fall down on.
Seriously, that's why they get voted in and that's why they get voted out, the coalition only get voted in to sort out the mess.
Wash, rinse repeat.
We needed Labor in to bring about change, but as is happening in most aspects at the moment, its imploding, so the conservatives will get voted in to get it all under control, then life gets boring and off we go again. Lol
That's what was done in the past.What they need to do is appoint a committee of experts to plan the whole future grid, and then get on with building it, instead of all the faffing around that's going on now.
These days it is driven by ideology, vested interests and profits.Labor got it right when they created Infrastructure Australia.
They let experts make the decisions about what infrastructure we needed, then just put up the money.
Abbott politicised it again and Labor appears to have continued down that path.

The sad thing is the basic concepts are easily understood by anyone who wants to understand.A young woman who is among Perth's leading eco-fanatics has admitted she cannot answer questions about the transition to renewable energy
Add to those problems the issue of logistics, manpower, gaining access etc and it is just becoming a joke, which wont end in laughter.Australia's renewable energy target is in trouble due to red - tape in getting approvals.
What I said before, having projects held in in the Courts by activists means we don't get the projects we need to keep the lights on.
Governments have to bite the bullet and expedite necessary projects.
Analysts say mounting problems mean Australia will fall well short of 2030 renewable energy target
Australia has ambitious plans to generate more than 80 per cent of its power from renewable sources by 2030. But a growing number of experts say the country is way behind where it should be.www.abc.net.au
The only question in my view is the detail of how it ends.Add to those problems the issue of logistics, manpower, gaining access etc and it is just becoming a joke, which wont end in laughter.
way too many balls in the air and the Government isn't landing any of them
My observation is simply that pretty much everything's moving far too slowly.the policy looked incapable of solving the underlying problem
And in many cases the physical not happening at all.Think in terms of paperwork and decision making taking twice as long as the actual physical work.
Sometimes, of more importance than a particular discovery, is the ability for it to be replicated independently by others.Researchers at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory say that they generated energy using nuclear fusion, and in higher amounts than achieved last December. Some believe that nuclear fusion will be a game-changer for the energy sector.
(Reuters) -U.S. scientists have achieved net energy gain in a fusion reaction for the second time since December, the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory said on July 30.
Scientists at the California-based lab repeated the fusion ignition breakthrough in an experiment in the National Ignition Facility (NIF) on July 30 that produced a higher energy yield than in December, a Lawrence Livermore spokesperson said.
Final results are still being analyzed, the spokesperson added.
Fusion will be a game changer if it works.Nuclear Fusion will just not go way, despite there being a lot of scepticism about it ever being physically feasible, much less economically feasible.
Now from The Weather network comes some interesting news.
Sometimes, of more importance than a particular discovery, is the ability for it to be replicated independently by others.
The pons Fleischman experiment was a notable failure in that after making headlines around the world on the announcement of the first net positive fusion reaction, no other independent body could replicate the results.
Pons and Fleischmen faded into the history book never to be heard from again, and Nuclear fusion was given a bad rap.
It remains to be seen whether this research joins all the other announcements, or heralds an exciting new era.
Given so many in the world are dead against Nuclear Fission as being a CO2 free energy generation mechanism, Fusion technology may get off the ground.

It's one of those things that has been "just around the corner" for a very long time now but thus far has failed to materialise.Nuclear Fusion might indeed be successful - at some stage in the future.
