>And how can it "negate years of hydro" anyway? Because 3 months of diesel averaged over 5 years (hydro fails only once every 5-10 years, not yearly) already makes that less than 100%. Additionally, they STILL use gas today -- right now. 100% is fiction. It's not even true today. How are you not getting this? 100% is a lie. The state government even admits as much. "The Tasmanian state government still sees a role for gas in its plans for a big expansion in renewable energy output by 2040, after introducing legislation in the state parliament yesterday." https://www.argusmedia.com/en/news/2150819-gas-to-play-role-in-tasmanias-renewable-energy-target https://www.argusmedia.com/en/news/2150819-gas-to-play-role-... Tasmania has gas generators. These gas generators run TODAY. That means that there are times when they are not 100% "renewable", making the headline claim false.
