The $20bn plan to power Singapore with Australian solar
- nrki 7y agoI gather the Singapore government requires renewables, making this plan viable. Unlike the Australian government, who are addicted to their cheap coal-fired power plants, despite the incredibly abundant solar resources on that continent.
- tiew9Vii 7y agoI think Mike Cannon-Brookes cofounder of Atlassian has some involvement with this from mentions in the media/his twitter account. Not mentioned in the article but might be interesting to Hacker News readers. I guess the $50 billion valuation after hitting $140+ a share last week gives him some cash to follow his renewable energy passion. He hooked up South Australia with Elon Musk’s batteries after a twitter convention with Musk.
