Why not spend $2.7b on solar & batteries instead? (thekaka.substack.com)

Govt to pay up to $180m/year or $2.7b over 15 years to lease LNG re-gasification plant, paid for by $15-$30 'levy' per household per year. That $2.7b would build four Benmore Dams worth of electricity

I mean it would be crazy to not consider solar right. I dont think the people preparing this report could ignore solar and instead only look at only wind and hydro. But I'm waiting for more details coming soon to hopefully put these questions to rest.
