#SaulGriffith is one of the people who got me into #EnergyTransition work with his #LongNow talk in 2009.

A nice chat with @drvolts about the #ClimateChange policies and politics of his Australian homeland:

This is a vital piece of legislation that would help more homes #ElectrifyEverything, as per the #SaulGriffith plan.

#AllegraSpender supports cheaper batteries bill

Back in the house and Wentworth independent MP Allegra Spender is backing #HelenHaines’ bill for cheaper batteries:

Cheaper home batteries are a climate and a cost of living imperative for all Australia. But without a helping hand from government, we won’t achieve the pace of uptake that we need.

Because although home batteries are coming down in price all the time, the up-front costs of between $7,000 and $15,000 remain a significant barrier for many.

This is one of the reasons why only 35,000 households installed a battery in 2021, the most recent year for which data is available.
