For discussion of absolute and relative costs and equity considerations as between the mainstream renewables-driven policy and one adding nuclear energy into the mix over the long term. Getting to agreement on the methodology of comparing future likely electricity costs would be helpful. Getting to the bottom of the recent public debate about whether CSIRO's GenCost estimates as incorporated by AEMO reflect full system costs of renewables would be a good step in that direction. It shouldn't be impossible to agree on an whether electricity prices are likely to go up or down as the proportion of renewables rises under current policies, should it? The comparative costs of adding nuclear to the mix could be addressed after the methodology and mainstream scenario projections have been more or less settled.
