The press conference is currently still live so this was the best short video I could find on the topic.

Fire off.

Link the east and west coast grids to let afternoon solar on the west coast flatten the evening east coast peaks, pick a big old chunk of desert in South Australia for wind and solar, throw in a few gigabatteries and tart up some hydro systems, done.

Probably only be $10-15 billion or so.
