The largest renewable project in the world seeks permission to begin construction

[Redaktion]

The Western Green Energy Hub project, located in Australia, will have an area similar to El Salvador and a total installed capacity of 70 gigawatts (GW). After obtaining environmental permission, the hub is expected to begin construction by 2029.

Australia will need a flywheel similar to Ireland's Moneypoint Power Station to stabilize that amount of wind production!

They don't need to stabilize anything, the project is solar+wind, and extra energy is sent towards making ammonia(fertilizer). The idea is to overproduce at all times, and extra energy goes towards things not time dependent like fertilizer

I wasn't talking about storing, but about inertia for frequency stabilizing.
