According to Submission to CSIRO’s Draft 2024-25 GenCost Report
By Independent Engineers, Scientists and Professionals, 11 February 2025:
"Conclusions and Recommendations
Independent Engineers, Scientists and Professionals, 11 February 2025
1. GenCost fails to demonstrate that it is ‘Australia’s most comprehensive’ report on NEM costs. It
fails to include major cost elements funded by government and consumers. Its levelised cost of
electricity (LCOE) method is aimed at providing investors with theoretical marginal investment
indicators limited to investor costs, not national electricity costs, yet undisputedly this document
is misused by government to justify its energy policies. GenCost should be much more forthright
upfront in the disclaimer and executive summary regarding its true purpose.
2GenCost’s claim that wind and solar are the cheapest form of electricity generation are completely
contradicted by whole-of-system ISP capital cost cash flow estimation – by a large margin as
indicated in Appendix 2 to this submission and other reports. CSIRO needs to explain the reasons
for this stark difference or clearly state that it is geared to investor interests and is not fit for
purpose to underpin national energy policy. The warning on page 57 states that cash flow cost
models are more realistic but is not sufficiently prominent.
3. GenCost employs highly contestable assumptions and data concerning capacity factors, capital
cost factors, facility lifetimes and spillage costs. CSIRO should rebalance the assumptions and data
for consistency to ensure it does not unduly favour renewables.
4. GenCost fails to account for Consumer Energy Resources (CER), low voltage distribution network
upgrades and disposal/remediation costs, which form a very large part of whole-of-system costs.
CER by itself is 60% of all solar and battery capacities in AEMO’s ISP. GenCost must include these
costs – they are not free. A purposeful report should include all costs to the national economy,
regardless of who pays.GenCost’s assumption that investors will have free access to previously built network resources is
completely unrealistic in normal markets and particularly considering that grid design must be
based on worst-case conditions, when all resources are at maximum utilisation. CSIRO must
reconsider the whole GenCost approach to renewable integration costs.
6. GenCost’s use of an unspecified electricity system model running 9 years of historical weatherrelated data to determine maximum integration costs based on the simple assumption that the
grid will be reliable is a major mistake for many reasons.
a. The 2011-2019 AEMO data does not encompass all worst-case conditions, which recent
freely available data from both Australia and overseas indicate. Wind droughts and solar
outages are a common-mode failure affecting the entire NEM.
b. AEMO’s use of a simulation model in the Integrated System Plan (ISP) illustrates the pitfalls,
which are detailed in Appendix 1. CSIRO must provide details of the model used and how the
criteria for reliability must include maintaining a viable dispatchable reserve margin under
all conditions to protect against facility outages. The failure of the ISP to define worst-case
conditions inherent to proper high reliability system engineering casts serious doubt on the
integrity of its modelling and grid design with direct implications for GenCost."
Further:
"According to An Open Letter to All Australians:
"Despite our vast natural resources, Australia now has some of the highest electricity prices in
the world. In 2022 the government promised $275 in savings. Instead, families are paying up to
$1,000 more on their bills.
The Net Zero Australia report — prepared by the University of Melbourne, University of
Queensland, and Princeton University, advised by the Australian Conservation Foundation and
Climate Council, and sponsored by the Minderoo Foundation — estimates a full renewables-only
transition would cost between $7 and $9 trillion over the next 35 years, including the
government’s “green hydrogen superpower” plans.
● This is the equivalent of up to $850,000 per household—a figure quietly buried by its own
supporters as it would bankrupt the nation.[https://www.netzeroaustralia.net.au/wpcontent/uploads/2023/04/Net-Zero-Australia-Modelling-Summary-Report.pdf]
● The repeated false claim that nuclear would cost $600 billion was created by a renewable
energy lobby group that receives funding from renewable energy supplies and donates to the
political parties – so are far from independent.
Their figure is five times the real cost estimate of Nuclear which based on CSIRO data is
approximately $120 billion and would deliver decades of secure, zero-emissions, reliable
power.
● Under current policies the risk of blackouts is real and rising. [AEMO warns of blackouts in 10-
year energy forecast | news.com.au — Australia’s leading news site]
● Large-scale renewable projects are destroying habitats, displacing wildlife, and degrading
farmland. [Impacts of large-scale renewables — Rainforest Reserves Australia]
● New transmission lines are carving a swath through regional Australia. Thousands of kilometres
of high-voltage towers and wind turbine pylons are being built on the high country and
disrupting farms and communities.
The government’s plan is based on discredited analysis. The modelling for the current
government plan for the renewable transition has been rejected and discredited even by the
government’s own frontbenchers. Despite this, policymakers and politicians are pushing ahead
with these policies without a replacement model and one that reveals the total system costs. "
Aidan Morrison, Director of Energy Program, Centre for Independent Studies also states:
"The AEMC should aim for principles-based regulation focusing on consumer protection
rather than an outcomes-based approach that views increased CER uptake and
coordination as an end in itself. Consumers should be able to choose to participate in the
CER market or not, according to their willingness to bear risks associated with becoming
traders of electricity rather than simply consumers.
1
The responsibility for reducing electricity-related emissions and ensuring the grid can
handle peak demand lies with generators, governments, network service providers and
grid operators. These entities are well placed to handle increasing complexity and risk.
The review should bear this in mind and avoid shifting the increasing complexity and risk
of maintaining cheap, reliable, and clean electricity onto unwilling consumers — the
majority of whom do not own solar panels, home batteries, or EVs. ", highlighting the need for AEMC to focus on consumer protection and giving consumers the right and ability to participate in the market or not.
And finally Daniel Wild succinctly notes, " “Australians who lose their jobs in agriculture, mining, and manufacturing because of a net zero
emissions target will not nd jobs in the so-called new, green economy – because it doesn’t exist,”
said Daniel Wild, Director of Research at the Institute of Public Affairs.
IPA research has identi ed that the renewable energy sector accounts for just 0.2% of all jobs
across the Australian economy, compared with agriculture (3.1% of all jobs), mining (2.5% of all
jobs), and manufacturing (7.9% of all jobs). Together, agriculture, mining, and manufacturing
account for 13.5% of all jobs.
The new research also identi ed that the renewable energy sector accounted for only 1% of all net
jobs created since 2010.
“The political class looks down on Australians who work in agriculture, mining, and
manufacturing. They see them as inconvenient roadblocks on the inevitable path to progress,
and would prefer them to just spend the rest of their lives on the dole.”
“Labor, Greens, half the Liberal Party, big business and their lobby groups, and the trade unions
hold Australian workers in contempt. They expect a 45-year-old unemployed manufacturing
worker to simply upskill and nd a new job which don’t exist,” said Mr Wild"
I completely agree with Daniel that Labor, Liberal, and the Greens hold Australian workers in contempt because from what I have observed, with the exception of of a few members who are Greens, these three major parties do not seem in the least bit interested in listening to constituents' concerns regarding massively expensive and I feel, potentially very flammable and unstable Good Earth Green Hydrogen and Ammonia project. Nuclear should be an option on the table for all Australians."
And since this and other projects are under the ASIC, they are financial products that by their very nature demand FULL DISCLOSURE and I feel should not be peddled to the public under any circumstances because of the above-mentioned reasons and for the fact that energy storage systems are made with highly flammable lithium-ion batteries, which makes them a high electrical bushfire risk that cannot be put out with water. Therefore, mitigating strategies are woefully inadequate to stop electrical bushfires from breaking out from energy projects such as these and the only way to prevent and eliminate the risk of electrical fires and the only way to ensure that electrical bushfires do not break out from projects like these is to permanently scrp this and other projects like it. Otherwise, I feel projects like this are just asking for the possibility of 2009 Black Saturday type fires which were caused by 6 out of 11 high voltage transmission lines, like the high voltage transmission lines that would be attached to this project. That high liklihood of electrical bushfires breaking out from this project and other such projects is unacceptable!

I oppose this development because it threatens local biodiversity and disrupts valuable agricultural land. Any project that permanently alters terrain or removes veteran trees destroys irreplaceable ecological value. The viability of a battery that can supply only a few hours of energy, despite massive cost, remains doubtful. The community expects transparency, particularly given the number of objections growing daily.
If the battery depends entirely on external generation, why has no definitive source of stored energy been identified in the planning documents?

I object to the Romani BESS proposal due to the irreversible environmental disturbance it will cause to local habitat and farming land. Once old growth gums or sensitive soils are cleared, the landscape can never truly return to its natural condition. I am also concerned that lithium battery fires, which are notoriously difficult to extinguish, pose an unacceptable risk. Noise emissions during both construction and operation have not been addressed adequately. Given these issues, the public deserves meaningful consideration, and the rising volume of objections should not be ignored.
How can the proponent guarantee absolute containment of a thermal-runaway fire when global experts admit such events cannot be fully controlled?

I object because this landscape at should not be industrialised in this manner. Removing long-standing vegetation and altering the natural setting damages ecosystems beyond recovery. The project’s limited energy capacity seems disproportionate to its footprint. With objections increasing, authorities must listen.

The proponent falsely claims “no cumulative impacts” despite this BESS sitting inside the South-West REZ with dozens of RUIN-A-BULL Solar, Wind & BESS Swindle Factories planned inside the REZ & outside as well -- some already, recklessly Approved without any Due Diligence, Scientific Determination or Factual Assessment.
Hay & South West locals hate AGL/Someva’s horrific Pottinger Wind + BESS Monstrosity — deceitfully Approved in the Booroorban area — that Hay Council secretly colluded with Vested Interest RE-Alliance and ABC Riverina propaganda unit to dump on the Hay community AGAINST THEIR WILL - with NO SOCIAL LICENCE!
Plus, there’s already another Heavy-Metal leaching, PFOS coated, unethical, CCP reliant Pottinger Solar + BESS Swindle Factory as well as yet another Saltbush Wind Bird Blender + filthy BESS Disaster in the works on the NSW Planning Portal.
As the RUIN-A-BULL Industry is completely unregulated as far as impacts on the public - the farmers & the community are concerned, these dodgy shysters & the Government know this infrastructure is Toxic as workers fixing Toxic Bisphenol A shedding Wind Turbines - that we all now know illegally, also contain ASBESTOS - are trained and provided with safety equipment to ensure they don’t get sick eg.

Foreign Developer here for the profit, nothing to do with saving the environment or providing affordable reliable electricity.
This BESS will be a fire risk, contaminate the environment, use huge amounts of fossil fuels for the production of the batteries, use diesel to run generators onsite 24/7 to keep the batteries cool, this is unrecyclable waste. Not in the public interest. This project will only benefit the developer.
Short lifespan then all this has to be replaced. What a waste of resources!

Thermal runaway and fire risk plus the limited battery lifespan make this project a sad joke. The developer will undoubtedly receive taxpayer funds and then the consumer will pay as the project owner plays the electricity market for profit. This will all end up in landfill leeching toxic chemicals into the environment. Will the company ensure that no child/slave labour is used in the mining or production of battery components? How many diesel generators will be charging the batteries when there is no wind/solar available (because it is too windy, too hot or too cloudy or simply no wind).
This foreign developer is here to profit from our government's stupidity.

*Planned, Heavy Metal leaching, unethically sourced, CCP Slave Labour reliant, PFOS coated Pottinger Solar Electricity Generating Works + Filthy, Toxic BESS BOMB;
*Planned Toxic Contaminating Saltbush Wind Swindle Factory + Hazardous, Life Threatening BESS BOMB.
That’s just the beginning of the NEVER-ENDING, FAKE GREEN GRAVY TRAIN with a multitude of greedy, ‘political’ shills feeding at this bottomless, Taxpayer funded, Vested Interest trough of the RenewaBULL Energy Poverty Grift & Ponzi Scam.
Just imagine all the National Security risks associated with this plethora of pathetically fragile, incapable, CCP reliant JUNK strewn all around Australia - especially as the PREDATORY TransGrid/ElectraNet combo ‘Project Energy Connect’ SABOTAGES THE GRID BY PLUGGING US INTO THE STATE GRID OF CHINA🇨🇳 - the CCP’s🇨🇳ASEAN POWER GRID AGENDA.

Of course, considering the CLIMATE CHANGE AUTHORITY CHAIR’s RECKLESS, NSW ELECTRICITY INFRASTRUCTURE GOAT TRACK’S A TOTAL SHAMBLES - it’s unsurprising considering environmental vandals are running this experimental show - with dominating & destructive Cheung Kong Infrastructure spin-off Spark Infrastructure & Predatory TransGrid controlling dodgy EnergyCo!
Whilst the most credible, independent Experts have long exposed Predatory TransGrid & the complicit Regulator’s debunked ISP & related ongoing failures - the very pertinent Dispute filed with the Australian Energy Regulator against Predatory TransGrid is a breath of fresh air for all of us being ripped off & tortured by this untrustworthy, out of control, self-serving Network operator.
“On 13 August 2025, the Australian Energy Regulator (AER) received a notice of dispute from the Centre for Independent Studies (CIS) disputing the conclusions of Transgrid’s Meeting system strength requirements in NSW Project Assessment Conclusions Report (PACR).
The PACR was published on 14 July 2025, for the Meeting system strength requirements in NSW Regulatory Test for Transmission (RIT-T). The notice of dispute contends that Transgrid has not correctly applied the RIT-T in that it has not complied with the National Electricity Rules (NER) clause 5.15.2 in identifying credible options.”
No wonder the NON-independent, complicit Regulator - who relentlessly parrots ideological propaganda directly from delusional Energy Ministers - is in a twist - taking extra time to manufacture yet another Garbage In Garbage Out excuse to weasel out of the cold hard facts of Electrical Engineering reality:
“On 8 September 2025 the AER extended the time to make a dispute resolution determination by 60 days under clause 5.16B(d) of the NER, because of the complexity of the issues involved.”
Predatory TransGrid’s diabolical, Vested Interest Experimentation on the public - enabled by the complicit Regulator - at the behest of idiotic Energy Minister ideologues - led to the extended Broken Hill Blackout Disaster - with the same outcome for all of NSW just an accident waiting to happen.
Whilst the Greens/Labor members of the recent Senate Witch Hunt - ‘Select Committee on Information Integrity on Climate Change & Energy’ strangely tried to criticise our use of AI whilst DCCEEW make it very clear that they themselves use it, and totally wasted their time trying to dishonestly smear rural communities & independent ‘Expert’ truth tellers instead of seeking factual information for their Inquiry, these Senators have disgraced themselves with their brazen deception, vile manner & rudeness in relentlessly targeting & falsely labelling the RenewaBULL Energy objecting witnesses with all manner of name calling & unjustified condemnation.
The propaganda unit of ABC Riverina certainly deserved a grilling as they relentlessly disseminate Fake Green propaganda/misinformation on behalf of the CCP, the gullible, pariah Hosts & Councils like Hay & Edward River, as well as advocating at Taxpayer expense for all the greedy Vested Interests & the deluge of well funded pro-‘renewable’ bodies so
disingenuously claiming to represent rural communities.
With ‘Secret Energy Business”deliberately excluding the public - instead being orchestrated & decided by THE ENEMY🤢🤑🤮 - our Social Licence & Voice is being usurped by the likes of RE-Alliance, Regional Development Australia Riverina, Energy Charter, Farmers for Climate Action, Community Power Agency, Riverina Murray Energy Accord (claiming “to get a fairer deal for community,”) Doctors for the Environment, ‘Right to Host RE’ NSW Farmers hierarchy, Woke CWA hierarchy, NFF (Not for Family Farmers,) Grattan Institute, NEXT Economy, CEC, Smart Energy Council, IEEFA Australia, etc., etc. - all given primacy by complicit media.
Worst of all in the Riverina has been the insufferably biased, Fake News ABC Riverina/NSW Country Hour with Hay’s developer prioritising Riverine Grazier also omitting & curtailing vital community awareness about the Reckless RenewaBULL Rort & TransGrid’s seriously detrimental Nightmare that the locals & all Australians deserve to be made fully aware of.
It’s about time that the Solar/Wind Industry is called to account along with all their dodgy advocates & those who are approving the most egregious, underhanded & evil scandal of the century.
Of course, Renew Economy - the chief of Ad nauseam swill - is frequently whipping up misinformation & relaying false accusations - like a protection racket for the dodgy Developer Parasites & Fake Green Pariah Hosts - seemingly designed to intimidate the objectors - who are simply exposing the truth that kindergarten children can easily comprehend & anyone with eyes can clearly see.
Let’s see the well funded Renew Economy provide credible, independent research - the peer reviewed scientific determination the Government has failed to do - ADDRESSING ASBESTOS & BISPHENOL A shedding from WIND TURBINES, TOXIC HEAVY METALS leaching into our FOOD BOWLS from PFOS COATED CHINESE SOLAR PANELS & HYDROFLUORIC ACID & Bis-FASI PFAS contaminating LITHIUM-ION BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS - like this ROMANI BESS ‘BOMB’ POISONING OUR LIFE-SUSTAINING LAND, VITAL WATER SOURCES, BIODIVERSITY & THE PUBLIC.
Renew Economy should also make themselves relevant by providing ‘Documented Reassurance’ from their Solar/Wind Industry - of all their well compensated Hosts - including the confirmed details of their Upfront Decommissioning & Remediation Bond Payments held in Safe Trust to GUARANTEE that the Local Council/Community isn’t left in the lurch - bearing the RISKY MORAL HAZARD forced on them by the Government & complicit IPCN stooges - of irreversible Toxic Contamination - the POISONING☠️of our Life-Sustaining Land, vital Water Systems, precious Biodiversity & the Public - from degraded, storm/FIRE🔥damaged & abandoned Swindle Factories.

🛑STOP🛑THE GOVERNMENT’S WAR ON FARMERS!!
Not only will Samsung C&T’s reckless Lithium-ion BESS BOMB’s THERMAL RUNAWAY inevitably cause irreversible, life-threatening, hazardous smoke billowing for days over the district, but dangerous residue laden with highly toxic chemicals - including poisonous Bis-FASI PFAS Forever Chemical & Hydrofluoric Acid will also consequentially & irreversibly result.
Devastating CUMULATIVE IMPACTS are already approved & planned to CURSE the Booroorban area including:
*Approved AGL/Someva’s disgusting Bisphenol A + ASBESTOS shedding Pottinger Wind Swindle Factory with 247 Turbines + FIRE🔥Hazardous BESS BOMB;
*Planned, Heavy Metal leaching, unethically sourced, CCP Slave Labour reliant, PFOS coated Pottinger Solar Electricity Generating Works + Filthy, Toxic BESS BOMB;
*Planned Toxic Contaminating Saltbush Wind Swindle Factory + Hazardous, Life Threatening BESS BOMB.
That’s just the beginning of the NEVER-ENDING, FAKE GREEN GRAVY TRAIN with a multitude of greedy, ‘political’ shills feeding at this bottomless, Taxpayer funded, Vested Interest trough of the RenewaBULL Energy Poverty Grift & Ponzi Scam.

Romani BESS has a Severe Fire-Hazard Risk Profile
I strongly object to all of these insecure, treacherous CCP reliant, Lithium-ion BESS planned at Booroorban, in the Riverina, the SW & everywhere else as their propensity for thermal runaway is disastrous - resulting in life-threatening smoke & toxic residue forever poisoning the area, the water, the wildlife & the public.
Future generations will curse those who have supported this despicable Environmental Vandalism of our country!
Inadequate fire-safety engineering allows these systems to burn for extended periods & to reignite - complicating fire-service response with no nearby Hazmat team - ensuring large-scale Fire spread & potential loss of life.

Romani BESS will cause Energy Poverty - worsening ever escalating network costs that are torturing all of us long suffering consumers.
Aggressive, reckless ruin-a-bull rollouts shift huge transmission and integration costs onto consumers, creating a renewaBULL - driven, CCP controlled, energy poverty cycle where households are unjustly ripped off - forced to pay despite no longer having a reliable secure, Australian electricity service.

Industrialised Solar/Wind Swindle factories and extremely FIRE prone, Bomb-like BESS like this Romani dump are poisonous Samsung Cr*p & Toxic junk that would cost us a fortune, never be capable or secure but will generate an ecocidal footprint from beginning to end.
From relying on unethical, filthy, torturous, child labour cobalt mining practices that scar landscapes, displace communities, and produce irreversible, toxic by-products that will contaminate soils and waterways - with poisonous impacts during operation from inevitable fire events with devastating impacts for the people, biodiversity, essential food growing land & our precious water systems contaminated by poisonous forever chemicals, as well as leaving a monumental pile of life-threatening toxic waste for Booroorban which cannot be recycled.

Stop destroying our environment! The only benefit here will be to the developer to game the electricity market at the expense of tax payers and electricity consumers. This is not clean or green. The foreign developer has no interest in the environment, community or electricity consumers.

I object to the project because its ecological footprint far outweighs its benefits. Removing native vegetation and disturbing fauna is environmentally irresponsible. The battery’s usefulness is questionable given its brief output duration. Public objections demonstrate dissatisfaction with large-scale industrialisation of rural areas.
How can the proponents assert long-term safety when global data on long-duration battery degradation is incomplete?
