    Jill Kirby can go suck the gas right out of the pipe.

    The country has been moving towards EVs and Heat Pumps for years. If the grid is at risk then it’s down to the short sightedness of government and the energy firms who have prioritised filling their own pockets rather than investing in the infrastructure.

      I replaced a gas boiler with a heat pump and cost went from ~3 AUD /day to less than 1 AUD/day. With the government subsidy it’s a no-brainer financially. Especially if you already have solar.
