As one of my favorite radio hosts, Alan Jones, says on an almost daily basis, Australia is in the worst crisis since federation not including the war years. This energy "crisis" is something that has been brought about purely through poor policy and poor scientific advise.
It has been reported that Australia and in particular Victoria and South Australia will have a major deficit of electricity in 2018/19. This is due to the fact that our chief scientists and environmental groups have pushed the almost religious ideas of Climate Change onto the ruling governments of the day. This has been brewing for over 10years. It was reported by Ray Hadley over winter that our Bureau of Meteorology has been caught manipulating data from its Thredbo weather stations by pushing the minimum temperatures higher to help keep the story of climate change always in the positive. If the accurate weather had been reported, it would be shown that while we may have had warm days this winter, our minimum temperatures were some of the coldest on record.
The South Australian premier Jay Wetherall said in a press release a few years back, that he was doing an "Experiment" by trying to pump in 60% of his electricity supply from wind power. See that, it was an experiment!!!! The Experiment failed and now the rest of us have to pick up the pieces.
Where I am in QLD we have lots of electricity, we have some of the biggest coal fired power stations in the country, as well as gas fired turbines and solar farms. But in NSW and Victoria, they don't have an infrastructure to support their citizens. This is why we have the East Coast Energy Network, basically its a big extension lead draped between QLD, NSW, Vic, AC and SA that can feed power to where it is needed in times of peak demand.

So in steps our useless PM telling the power companies and gas miners that he doesn't want an energy crisis and that we need to keep more gas here in Australia for domestic use.
The gas companies, pretending like they are acting in Australia's best interest bow down and say "ohh yes Mr PM, we'll sell more gas in Australia"
The gas companies couldn't be happier that they have been told to do this. Australian citizens pay many multiples MORE for gas than a Japanese user, even though it has to be piped to a port, shipped to Japan and then retailed over there. The gas companies are just going to get bigger profits selling to suckers like you and me.

And then we've got the die hard greenies, who don't want emissions and want everything super cheap. We can do that, its called Nuclear Power. Its the cleanest, greenest and cheapest form of energy in the world. Much cheaper and cleaner than Solar. Imagine if you pulled down all the solar farms and built 1 Nuclear power plant. Then you could plant a forest where each of those panels stood. But No, that's not good enough for them either because they are worried about a Fukashima or Chernobyl event. Well that wont happen in Australia, we aren't on a fault line, we have safety measures and maintenance systems that stop these kinds of breakdowns.

Basically what it all comes down to is that the Hard Leftwing green movements are such die hard climate change fanatics almost to the point that it is a satanic cult who have their tentacles embedded so deep within all levels of government and private enterprise that to break the cycle requires almost a revolution. The head of the serpent needs to be removed and the person who swings that mighty ax also needs to have enough stamina to also remove the many other replacement serpents that will immediately pop up in its place.
The time for appeasement and talk is over, the time for swift action that cripples the worlds biggest hoax needs to happen, it needs to timed perfectly, it needs to be done in unison and it needs to be done with enough reserves to ensure that it will be effective.
