Well tell me the cost of the small Canadian reactor then?
It's all very easy to say "You post bias sources" but you don't post anything beyond dodgy YouTube videos....

Re: News & Discussion: Adelaide Metro Trains
That map doesn't look quite right.
I am sure the corridor heads due south from Seaford and does not curve towards South Rd as this map indicates.

Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure
I always have a little chuckle to myself whenever I hear someone say ''We can build nuclear in a 10 year timeframe" Why? Because real world experience says it wont work like that. Europe and North America have had nuclear power since the 1950's so their level of expertise is way above ours so h...

Re: News & Discussion: Trams
Why not just increase the frequency? 10 minutes by day and 20 minutes nights and weekends... Too many people in Adelaide are obsessed by building new tram lines, train lines or new O-bahns. Increases in frequency is also "better public transport". I would like to see a lot of the Liberals ...

BHP South Australia has done this and next year Olympic Dam mine will be powered exclusively by renewables and batteries. BHP Olympic Dam will not be powered exclusively by renewables. Yes you are right. I was under the impression that BHP had signed 2 agreements for renewable power.....the first o...

Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure
There will still be industrial electricity consumers that are likely to need grid power and not generate sufficient solar and battery power for their operations. Small home and factory wind turbines seem not to be installed in Australia. Industrial users of electricity are better off doing deals wi...

Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure
I have not heard that the transmission lines between Port Augusta and Adelaide are full yet. Maybe the Electranet site will give some idea of future expansion plans. https://www.electranet.com.au/ And another battery has started construction, this time near Port Pirie......150mw/300mwh not huge but ...

Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure
I have also heard that South Australian transmission charges (the price to move electricity from one part of the state to another) are higher than all the other states (including WA which actually has 3 separate grids). This has been justified by SAPN because of SA's small population base and the la...

Re: News & Discussion: O-Bahn
I believe the Jet Express bus to the airport was not a great success when it previously ran...ie low patronage. The Express bus stops were different to the J1 and J2 bus stops so if you missed the express bus you had to walk to another bus stop on another street to get the alternative services. I wo...
