It is absolute stupidity to get rid of the coal power stations and replace them with wind and solar. Anybody with even a passing knowledge of solar and wind generated electricity knows that it won't work.

Sadly the power went off in SA many years ago.

Interestingly the intersection of glynburn and magill still had operational traffic lights.

Mondi, apparently the cell towers only have an 8hr battery backup. Is this right?
