Why did Spain”s grid collapse?

The reasons are still being studied. 

Above is the case arguing that it was the lack of inertia in the national grid, because of lack of baseload power. 

I’m goimg to wait for the final conclusions. But I’m goimg to ne alive to this fact: that the climate activist side of this argument are going to go to great lengths to make sure the reason does not come down to its being too much of renewables in the grid.

John Papola above talks through the dangers of reducing baseload power. Which, by the way, is what my own Australia is trying to do. To be totally renewable, with no baseload. It knows and acknowledges that there is no developed economy which runs only on renewables. But “no worries”, says our Climate Czar, Chris Bowen. Trust me. She’ll be right.
