A near 100% renewables grid is well within reach, and with little storage
One thing I would love to see addressed in these kinds of analyses: the efficacy of strategic placement of solar. Electrical demand tends to peak slightly after sundown for much of the year. However, the sun obviously doesn&#x27;t set at the same time everywhere. Darwin&#x27;s sunset is currently an hour and a half later than Sydney&#x2F;Brisbane. Could building more equatorial&#x2F;western solar installations together with transmission defer some of the need for storage, even with the same amount of solar deployed?
