Nick Cater, a Senior Fellow at the Menzies Research Centre and a writer, discusses the challenges of renewable energy using the example of Broken Hill in Australia. He highlights the issues with relying on renewable energy without proper backup, the impracticality of solely using renewables for large-scale energy needs, and the political and economic implications. Cater also touches upon Australia's unique challenges with energy policy, migration, and the influence of new political parties.
