Solar analyst Jenny Chase did her yearly "thoughts on solar" update recently and said:

> By 2030 most countries will have spot power prices of zero in sunny hours. This will be passed on to end consumers, to encourage them to shift power demand to sunny periods by electric vehicle and battery charging, preheating, precooling, etc.

So Australia is just ahead of the curve, as it generally is with solar.

This is interesting, but I wonder how it will play out.

I remember reading about the advent of nuclear power, which was supposed to be "too cheap to meter", but it never materialized.

My taks is that "free" always, always correlates with bad behavior. I think people might just heat their pool with resistive electricity. Or air condition their backyard.
