Your link does not have June 2018 data. It only goes up to March 2018.
Anyway the data shows the closure of coal has driven the cost up. (30 June 2016)
Also a year later the marker operator decided that Gas would have priority over Wind no matter what price they bid at. https://reneweconomy.com.au/ne...
The market has said wholesale costs have gone down(see the closure of the coal plant and the reduction of wholesale prices as the reason). Retail has gone up and their are many reasons for this.
I am saying the fossil fuel power plants do not need to pay their capital costs and can charge lower or make bigger profits, their choice.
How do you explain New South Wales having the 2nd highest power costs? They did not build renewables and still have the 2nd highest price. https://www.thegwpf.com/green-...
Interesting fact, Germany makes more money selling electricity to France then France makes in reverse.
I am saying that wholesale costs are driven down by renewabales.
And if Australia was 100% renewable then we would indeed have a problem.
And connection costs are paid for by the wholesale cost.
The point is all the fossil fuel stations have paid their capital costs.
I am saying that because the gas was sold overseas as higher rates, burning it for power here drives costs up.
And as for your attack. >. I have never met a green that could either see past their nose, or wasn't flat out lying about the problems of their religion.
Half right. They are the cheapest when running so they get picked first. The renewable energy developers are responsible for connecting to the network. We have not had a new gas or coal station built in decades so no capital cost at all.
Normally the SA power is provided by wind+ local gas or Vic gas + local gas. With the network down the local gas had the monopoly.
(Also Australian Gas is expensive. It is cheaper to buy Australian Gas from Japan and ship it back then use locally)
Except the network costs was not driven by increased renewables. What happened was the networks were allowed to invest what ever they wanted and get a guaranteed return. Then demand dropped and they were still allowed the same amount total.
And for the monopoly it was not renewables alone that caused it but also one of the lines into the state was down for maintenance that caused the monopoly. (also they get the average cost over the 30 minutes but bid in 5 minutes. So you can bid $14,000 in the first period, -$1000 in the next 5 and you get $1,800 per MWh generated over the 30 minutes)
Having to fill in the gaps drives the cost of wholesale power up not the network cost.
That was the response of a senior Tesla Energy executive this week after the extraordinary scenes in South Australia’s electricity market on Monday, when the fossil fuel generators had a party and prices swung from $14,200/MWh
Also where is you 41cents/kWH cost.
http://www.aemo.com.au/ (who run the power grid) has the generators only getting 12c/kwh at peak or SA.
The facility in Port Augusta was switched off by its owner, Alinta Energy, ending more than 31 years of generation. Its smaller and older adjoining facility at Playford was switched off last year, due to falling wholesale power prices caused by the influx of renewable energy such as wind and solar
The problem is SA has no gas of it's own and has to import it.
Also a problem is 30 minute settlement. Lots of generators bid high in the first five minutes and then negative in the last 25 minutes.
I'm betting you wouldn't have the guts to tell someone living in the poorest parts of Africa or Asia that the food they have to scramble to get to literally keep their kids from starving to death will cost twice as much because you want to virtue signal and outlaw the use of fossil fuels.
I'm betting they do. How many people die from Malaria in Africa? That's not stopping many from trying to ban DDT worldwide.
Actually the ban is to keep it effective. Widespread DDT use = Mosquitoes that are not effected by DDT.

How would you handle the situation where you have two businesses with the same name in diffrent countries?
For example would you end up with the following
realestate
realestatebrisbane
realestatebrisbaneaustralia
How do you break up Facebook? (As in what parts of facebook goes to new companies)
As for Amazon, I would add WalMart to the list as well.
Nope the transport in that case is car. (see the 2nd paragraph)

Scientists claimed DDT is safe to spray on kids
It is. DDT was banned because it was linked to a decline in bird populations, not because of harm to humans.
Also one of the tests they do know before using DDT is too see if the mosquitoes are immune to it.
Point was, cell phones have led to many of the pay phones being removed.
Did you happen to use pay phones?
A Social security, Medicaid, unemployment, minimum wage...when was the last time you saw benefits decreased? Almost never. Increased? Almost always.
Are you factoring inflation into the calculations?

I can say the same thing about the Anti-Greens.

Those prices are retail.
So you have wholesale costs of 12cents at most.
~30 cents are other costs such as network and retail profit margins. That is where the real cost is not the renewable cost.
Cheaper then the $14.20 / Kwh the fossil fuel people charge. (Although that is due to a different issue)

And what killed it was cheap wholesale prices due to renewables.
I think the sat pics are more up to date.
For Australia especially South Australia it is actual gas ,diesel and network costs that makes power so expensive.

Sure. I am sure you are including the "Allowed to emit CO2" as a subsidy.
In most cases the brakes failed.

1) You mean spread uncontrollably?
Good idea except for one thing. Where are all the people in Manhattan going to plant their tree?
