  • Sky News host Chris Kenny says Australia has been lucky with a “couple of mild summers” as speculation looms over the country running short on electricity.
    “We have been lucky, the whole country has been lucky with a couple of mild summers, if we get a normal summer, we are going to run short of electricity,” Mr Kenny said.
    “We are going to have February, March, where we do not have enough power in this country, that is what all the experts tell us, we have just been lucky with the weather.”

    Electricity shortages will be because of the renewables., and lack of coal fired power stations. Nothing to do with hot summers.

      Renewables are intermittent, something labor will be finding out the hard way when the lights go out.

    They’ve been saying that summers are getting worse. The past three, at least, have been quite mild. They’ve downgraded the requirements for a heat wave and any day over 30 is a “scorcher”. Summers are not getting hotter, or longer in Australia.
