The offering of VPA funding to councils and sucking in community groups is a form of coercive compensation to look away from the ECOCIDAL DISASTER and CCP CONtrol.

These cash incentives will NEVER clean the soil and water, prevent fires, or rebuild agriculture.

Jindera BESS is one big experimental disaster where failure is a design feature!

There is no long-term operational safety record of 250MW/500MWh lithium-ion BESS in Australia.

These are experimental-scale deployments, rolled out without independent engineering trials.

This is a risk experiment, not an infrastructure power solution.

Why do you persist in polluting our environment with these life changing developments in some forlorn hope of saving your polluted city environment.
We should not be subjected to this destructive climate policy

Poisonous Public Health & Safety Risks are deliberately ignored by these dodgy developers.

Thermal runaway events in lithium-ion BESS are violent, chemical-intensive explosions.

Fire departments globally acknowledge the extremely hazardous, life-threatening challenge of trying to fight BESS fires.
Where’s the developers own, onsite FIRE CREW & HAZMAT EQUIPMENT?

This proposal is NOT APPROVABLE as it offers no credible fire suppression, evacuation or public safety plan.

Jindera BESS would unacceptably and shamefully rely on batteries and components sourced from China, which are well-documented to involve slave labour, environmental destruction, and CCP-controlled enterprises.

There’s no ethical procurement plan.
This is modern-day blood minerals!

Economic Licence has been forged for this
RUIN-A-BULL SWINDLE!

The idea that these BESS disasters lower electricity prices has been debunked by independent economic analysts.

Instead, they lead to costly subsidies, higher household bills, and decades-long costs in devastating contamination consequences, grid stabilisation and remediation.

Grid-scale BESS like Jindera cannot provide synchronous inertia — a critical component of real grid stability.

The proposal completely fails to include independent electrical engineering analysis confirming its alleged reliability or contribution to baseload stability.

The silence on NATIONAL SECURITY IS DEAFENING and TREACHEROUS!!

Why is there no mention of cyber-resilience, hardware sovereignty, or data security, despite BESS systems being so vulnerable & targetable remotely?

With Chinese-controlled supply chains and embedded software, this represents critical national infrastructure sabotage waiting to happen.

This BESS merely shifts pathetically unreliable solar/wind intermittency, not eliminates it.

It stores unreliable energy and makes it available… unreliably.

No thermal, baseload, or synchronous capacity is added.

This is a fake solution to the very real problem of lack of 24/7 POWER ON DEMAND!

Jindera BESS is a permanent contamination risk
to our vital Water Supply!

Leachates from damaged batteries, including fluorinated organic compounds, lithium salts, PFAS - all pose a long-term water contamination risk.

No evidence-based risk mitigation has been provided — this is an environmental ticking time bomb!
