It may well be that that is the opinion of that Wellington bus driver.
However other drivers may have a different opinion.
It is also worth remembering that anything on "Watt's Up With That" needs to be treated with suspicion unless confirmed by more trustworthy sources.

It's not actually the NT Government John as the link was to the Feb 22 announcement by the Commonwealth minister (previous coalition government) of their input of 19.4million. If they do that and then something happens it has a greater impact on the NT economy.Quote:

There have been companies out there exploring for years (probably decades) and part of the reason the Northern Gas Pipeline was built by Jemena (Tennant Creek to Mt Isa) was because it was probable that someon across the Beetaloo would want to tap into it. An internet search for the Beetaloo sub-basin will return results from a number of companies or joint ventures that have been out there exploring already.
I am well aware that companies are exploring there, and have been for years. But that does not mean that there is a good chance of discovering anything that is able to be profitably produced. You need to recognise that resource exploration necessarily involves exploring in places where success is low probability - if you do enough of these the idea is that sooner or later there will be a discovery that pays for all the unsuccessful exploration by being very profitable. But whether governments should be putting up money to support this in a specific area is very much another question. And this is regardless of whether it is territory or Federal.Quote:

Exploration and appraisals continue to show encouraging results. Industry analysis suggests that most exploration will be finalised by 2023 and the Australian Government is working to support accelerated final investment decisions by 2025 or earlier. - NTG website
Interestingly Sun Cables 17 - 20 GW solar farm is virtually next door.
So you would rather believe some crackpot woke site with no credibility than the actual account of a real person who has actually experienced what it is like to drive an electric bus for a living?Quote:
Happy now?
