So, how much capacity are you going to install? What is the cost of this to the business? How much capital and shareholder funds are you deploying? How much taxpayer subsidies are you claiming?

Renewable energy sources and the technologies to produce them exist; they just need to be given a chance by being used to become our main energy sources.

In addition to the Pilbara, Lake Eyre Basin, and the Simpson Desert, Australia boasts numerous other regions with excellent conditions for harnessing extreme solar power. It makes me wonder why dark, flat solar panels, which absorb heat under the intense sun and lose up to 20% of their efficiency, are still predominantly used in these areas.

Very irritating narrative. Patronizing in the extreme as though readers don't have the capacity to make their own judgements.
