South Australia wasn’t supposed to move this fast. Models assumed slow, steady, controlled change. Instead it’s already at ~74% renewables, hitting 100% around 74% of the time. Beyond targets. Beyond plans. When cost curves hit, the system doesn’t transition… it flips.
That’s where the models start to break. They assumed renewables would gradually take share. Instead they’re already setting the behaviour of the grid. Price, flow, stability… all increasingly driven by wind and solar. That shift wasn’t meant to happen this early.
And here’s the part most people still miss. Demand isn’t sitting back waiting for the grid to catch up. It’s starting to move toward it. What used to be a ~3.3 GW system is now planning for 6.5 GW and beyond, with long term thinking pushing toward ~25 GW.
SA already has way more generation capacity than it needs most of the time, which is why you’re seeing 100%+ renewables periods, negative demand events, exports to other states, and a surge in new battery plants. That’s a classic sign of a system moving into energy surplus mode.
That’s not normal growth. That’s a system being rebuilt for something bigger. Mining, green metals, data centres. Energy-intensive industries don’t wait around. They move to where energy is cheapest, most abundant, most reliable.
At the same time, the old intermittency argument quietly collapsed. Not through debate, but through deployment. Storage scaled. Batteries moved from experiment to infrastructure. Multi-hour systems are becoming standard, not exception.
Now the grid is doing things it wasn’t supposed to do this early. Negative demand. Excess generation. Exporting energy instead of scrambling for it. These aren’t edge cases anymore. They’re signals the system has already flipped.
This is why calling it a transition doesn’t quite fit anymore. It implies something slow, linear, predictable. What this looks like is a phase change. The models assumed gradual adoption. Reality followed cost curves.
China is winning on scale. No question. But South Australia is showing something just as important… what the end state actually looks like. A grid where energy becomes abundant at times, local by default, and detached from fuel markets.

Are you people morons ? Or just morons 😳🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️WTF

China emits more CO₂ in 12 days than Australia does in a whole year. Yet Australia's tiny fleet of coal plants and 1% share of global emissions is somehow the climate emergency. Make it make sense.

The Islamic imam who put 1million naira to any Muslim that can behead a pastor for preaching Jesus has said:
“…whoever carries out this job (of beheading the pastor), I swear to Allah I’ll give him one million naira. We have nothing to lose even if after beheading this pastor, the Arewa plunges into chaos, we have nothing to lose…”
Dear @OfficialDSSNG @PoliceNG
We know you will pretend not to see this. But we are bringing this to your attention again.
There are Muslim clerics in northern Nigeria who are openly calling for the beheading of Christian pastors.
Pls help retweet this for the world to see.

🇪🇸 Hiszpańska para wróciła do domu z dwutygodniowych wakacji.
Otworzyli drzwi. A w środku - duża rodzina nielegalnych imigrantów!
Zaskoczeni Hiszpanie zostali natychmiastowo brutalnie pobici przez imigrantów. Imigrantów mało obchodziło, że Hiszpanka była w ciąży.
Hiszpańska policja interweniowała w sprawie pobicia.
Ale policja odmówiła zajęcia się nielegalnym przejęciem domu przez imigrantów.
Hiszpańska para - już nie ma domu.

@JaneCaro Holy Shit 😳😂😂😂These people are insane . Jane’s cold and she doesn’t know what time it is 🤦♂️

I just donated to help stop One Nation in Farrer! Together, we can make a difference. Will you join me? give.getup.org.au/page/farrer-st…

@DavidWhite93507 @JaneCaro Jane is cold and she doesn’t know what time it is 😳😂😂😂

@JaneCaro Do you even know where Farrer is, Jane? The last thing the people of Farrer want is Chardonnay Socialists from outside the electorate telling them what's best for them.

America went to war in the Middle East to secure oil. China just sold everyone the exit.
While Washington burned through alliances and aircraft carriers, Beijing spent a decade quietly monopolizing solar panels, batteries, and electric vehicles.
The Iran war didn’t slow that down. It accelerated it.
Oil prices spiked. Clean energy orders went through the roof. Chinese battery exports are up 57% year on year. Solar, batteries and EVs hit $22 billion in a single month.

@JulianHillMP Do you guys ever mention anything you are actually doing, like policies or plans ?? Name calling and attacking the opposition just looks weak and pathetic. But by the way have you looked at the polls 😳😂
