It seems to me the more something is left to free market the cheaper it is, while the more something is in regulation or outright supplied by government the more expensive it is.

Reply to [OC] Real minimum wages 2021 by Klutzy_Ambition5445
In australia the minimum wage is a anchor point with wages set to an offset from it, meaning that the minimum for most jobs is way higher than that. Almost all jobs have a legal minimum “award” rate which is a set offset above minimum wage.

Many of the trade bodies have a setup where each country gets 1 vote, instead of a vote proportional to the amount of trade.
So a group of micro nations can dictate the rules for large countries trade which is stupid.

Your numbers are childish.
Power has always only cost 4c/kwhour (8c after RET). The rest of the cost is transmission and distribution.
So no, your solar power isn’t worth 30c/kwhour - except at your house.
Allah there is no “extra”, solar didn’t reach 100%, so there has never been any ‘extra’ to store.

Now they just need to invent a light bulb that lights in proportion with how much wind is blowing.
