Cool story, still kills a fkton of people through air pollution. No coal in Australia is "clean"

Emissions are far cleaner, fewer/no particulates, etc. It's not great, but better than dirty brown coal.

Yup, baseload is just the minimum output you can run a steam turbine at to prevent damage from steam condensing. You have to run it at a…

see: Peters v Panasonic Australia Pty Ltd (Civil Claims) [2014] iirc it was decided that a good quality TV should last 8 years.
