    Australia’s power grid is not capable of handling rapid, large increases of electricity use, nor are people’s wallets prepared for what would happen to power bills.

      Hmm, we have gold plated electricity grid, underutilized. It can handle a lot, not to mention than full electrification of transport will not increase load much as many thought.

        It can’t even handle the load we have in a few states lol. Full electrification of transport will absolutely increase load a gigantic amount.
