David Sentinella<p>Typical <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Liberals" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Liberals</span></a>: build more dams and burn more forests. Now it's put nuclear reactors near where workers live. <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Baseload" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Baseload</span></a> is the biggest lie. Wind + Solar + Storage means nuclear is a deadly lame duck. <a href="https://aus.social/tags/QandA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>QandA</span></a></p>

Christian Kent<p>But did your energy REALLY come from you? Or did it go on a loop via the substation? Or did a coal plant power your household appliance? 😆</p><p>One thing is for sure: Coal fire power production is reducing over time, as more wind, solar &amp; storage comes online. Only <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/wind" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>wind</span></a> &amp; <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/solar" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>solar</span></a> are on a massive installation spike.</p><p>Gas power is the most interesting fossil fuel because it can be switched on and off quickly. Coal needs to stay warmed up just in case. That’s where “<a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/baseload" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>baseload</span></a> power” comes from.</p>
