As a rough rule of thumb, based on analysis in Australia, to achieve a one hundred percent 00:08:21 renewable electricity grid, you need about one gigawatt of power for every one million people, plus probably twenty hours of energy storage to give yourself plenty of leeway from the five hours minimum number in the recent studies I mentioned earlier. So that’s twenty gigawatt hours of energy storage per million people in a well-connected high-energy-use country like Aus, with good wind and solar resources. That equates to a total Australian requirement of about 00:08:46 five hundred gigawatt hours in a country that has storage potential about three hundred times
