Wind power is subsidised and increases consumer prices. TAI's case rests on irrelevant dispatch price.

have you read Warburton's modeling or is he to Green for you? And you know we subsidise coal right?
-
(a) Yes. (b) No. (c) Minimal to non-existent. Warburton rec'd $22B RET closure despite ACIL's pool price modelling.
-
exactly, he ignored his own Modelling. I hardly think billions spent on single use coal rail small beer.
-
the point being pool impact modelling did not offset total RET subsidy. Let wind play on even field, and then ... ?
-
great idea. Lets make all forms of energy pay for their pollution. I'm into this 'level playing field' thing
-
Assuming CO2 is a material pollutant (current shadow price says no), and wind faced cost of its intermittency.
