Greens Senator David Shoebridge says Australia has “no choice” other than to transition to green energy as quickly as possible.
“We’ve got no choice, we have to be ready,” Mr Shoebridge told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio.
“If you look over the last few summers, our very aging coal-fired power fleet are the least reliable energy sources.
“They’re the ones that are going out when it’s really hot.
“The most reliable energy we have, the most dependent is our solar and wind – the cheapest we have.”

Build Coal and Nuclear Power Stations.
Send the Phlegms to a Donkey Sanctuary in NZ
Next week ask if Aliens exists. Do you think Aliens visit australia? Are there aliens on other planets in the solar system?
what a crock! " our kids and our grand kids can enjoy" how is some thing we have to replace every 15 years for our grand kids? now if he was talking about nuclear i would agree, but what if china wants to stop selling us replacement panels and turbines like they like to do at any time to hold us over a barrel? these greens are delusional and never allow for setbacks ir outright disasters[ ev fires , hail storms, cyclones ..] that could devistate our electrical grid and china just decide that they dont want to help, then we screwed! its all rainbows and unicorns til reality strikes and its " well we couldnt have forseen this [ insert disaster here] they are disaster merchants with big smiles and empty souls
They've no choice because they owe heaps of money now.
Effing minority dictating yet again to the majority.
P!$$ off.
Why debate about renewables V's nuclear, when there's coal and gas a plenty?
It doesn't cost anything other than maintenance to keep things the way they are. Fck emissions.
the reason he gave for investors not building coal power stations was an outright lie! its because of government regulations , penalties and wef and blackrock/vanguard holding the purse strings with their DEI agenda and the social governance score system , all banks have been warned not to lend for any fossil projects, then the uphill battle with the second wave attacks from aboriginal groups wanting a slice of a pie that not even off the ground yet! we need an argentina style government department and regulation flushing with complete investigation of billions of aboriginal grants that never reached the ground
David you have not a clue lies lies lies have no choice bs
Look at the arrogance & self righteousness of this Greens moron.
Renewable Transition Poverty
So 50 year old coal is bad…. Build new ones then 😂😂😂😂
It's coming. Get on the train or get out of the way.
Nuclear is inevitable in Australia, there is no viable alternative if you want to chase net zero emissions. A system of intermittent renewables is the most expensive and inefficient way to generate electricity. Australia is on track to be the next Germany if we continue down the path of 100% renewables.
No its been twenty know on top no real working system and if every ten years you got to replace massive dead lithium battery vs one to a couple coal vs new state of the art electric motor run cores turbine generator at half your cost grid viable the biggest propetual motion ever if we told you truth unfortunately you wouldn't bye it but a crazy Darwinism bull con you bye ????? Soon human race been on this since the press on cost to poles no shares no no me back to 1:50kwh your paying double for nothing cost wise they payed it on top con by junkies. So i did my super cooling on braking alone the neyodium super state the copper standard x4 to standard kids science show on YouTube and my second part on split join cores the gauss is off the charts from ceramic motor magnet coil two one way only mv but flip it the other way so half the time there n/n s/s 3v by hand????? Where you go to school…. On top no thermal energy me thinking a new fussion reactor with no fussion by antimatter to matter without blowing it up fabric density is a issue sucking it out but the heat it could produce off the charts…..
Hmmm Interesing result. Seems anyone living in Canberra is living in either a 'bubble' or 'fantasy'
That’s what they’ve been saying for 50 years. Lol
We have a choice david. Limited immigration will require less environmentally destructive power.
The nuclear path is being chosen by China and other countries.
My understanding is that renewables don't make retail prices cheaper only wholesale prices, the cost of transmission, storage etc is passed on to consumers..
Nuclear is expensive but makes electricity cheap
Renewables are cheap but make power expensive
The Jury should be called the Joke
All the while China , India are building more coal fired Power Plants . This is a complete joke , destroying our way of life for nothing.
The reason for that all is the Wef plan
i was gung ho for this green agenda way back in the early 1970s when ‘Limits to Growth’ was published by Club of Rome. Now that i have developed my scientific and forensic skills, it’s become obvious that the ‘green agenda’ is a data fraud based satanic murder suicide cult designed to eliminate most of humanity from our planet – a planet which is in fact Planet Superabundance.
