100% renewable energy is becoming cost-effective,

[***super_nova***]

Advances in technology, and the ambitions of countries willing to harness it, are proving that the transition to 100% renewable energy is not only possible, but cost-effective, too. Investment and development of solar and wind infrastructure, as well as energy output, is booming after a 3-year slump—a hopeful sign of things to come.

Please explain to everyone how Victoria would transport all their clean energy worldwide?

Quantum energy teleportation, a hypothesis first put forward by Japanese physicist Masahiro Hotta of Tohoku University, proposes that it may be possible to teleport energy by exploiting quantum energy fluctuations of an entangled vacuum state of a quantum field.

The hypothesis proposes that energy may be injected into a zero-point fluctuation of the field at one place, and extracted from a fluctuation at another place. Even for interstellar distance energy transfer, the amount of teleported energy is nonzero,[13] but negligibly small. In contrast, the teleportation protocol will be effective in small quantum worlds of nanoscale devices like quantum computers.

You may notice  that I said "Please explain to everyone" but that is just an aside.

By the way you have neglected to address the other question.

That is the source of all this clean energy?

Solar arrays?

Perhaps you might like to explain to EVERYONE why it is that, when there is all this abundant free, clean energy available people still pay a high price for their energy usage.

Could it be that the energy is not as abundant as people are led to believe and that it is far from being free?

If anyone thinks we will ever have cheap energy, forget it. Even if all manufacturing and installation costs are paid back
and generating it from wind or solar is free, that doesn't mean we will get it cheaper.

Pie in the sky thinking.

Naughty Vic !!! how dare you sow the seeds of disillusion among the gullible masses

Please explain, please explain. Could be mistaken for Pauline Hanson's parrot

LOL

Everybody seems to think things are sold on the basis of what they cost.

You sell things for as much as you can get for them, and / or what the market will bearo
Only fools sell things based on what it costs.

Energy is no different, except you have a Govt regulator, who is not going to lower prices,
Only limit the increases energy companies can charge.


The gullible masses can think what they like and join the other
Socialists in the hand out queue.

When is anything free. Your argument is nonsensical. Did you know that Kellogg brothers accidentally invented corn flakes and they thought they might stop the patients in their asylum stop **bleep**. Go eat some corn flakes

Jimmy we could all have theoreticall meals cooked by theoretical energy teleported to our theoretically heated and insulted dwellings 🙂

All it requires is quantum mechanics, easy peasy

Outlandish,unsupported statements need some explanations, without which they remain nothing more than unsupported, outlandish, figments of a vivid imagination postulated by someone who is unaware of reality.

Not sure why the Kellogg brothers were brought into this either.

Different time, different place, different topic.
