Indonesia greenlights $30bn Aussie plan to power Singapore
GEOFF CHAMBERS
Indonesia has approved the route of Sun Cable’s Australia-Asia PowerLink through its territorial waters, allowing one of the world’s largest solar farms in the Northern Territory to provide up to 15 per cent of Singapore’s electricity needs from 2028.
In a major coup for the $30bn Australian project, which is backed by Scott Morrison, Indonesia’s Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs and Investment Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan on Thursday announced he had recommended the route of the transmission cables through Indonesian waters.
The Indonesian government has also approved the subsea survey permit and welcomed Sun Cable’s investment in the country, which will support local jobs and manufacturing during construction and operation.
The Sun Cable project at Elliott, which is estimated to deliver carbon emissions abatement of around 8.6 million tonnes per year, will help power Darwin and Singapore. It includes the world’s largest battery and a 4200km undersea high voltage direct current cable system from Darwin to Singapore, the longest in the world.
During his visit to Singapore in June, Mr Morrison directly raised the Sun Cable project with Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, which he said could “see homes powered here … from solar panels in Australia”.
The project, backed by billionaire investors Mike Cannon-Brookes and Andrew Forrest, is expected to be promoted by Australia ahead of the United Nations Climate Change Conference in November to illustrate the importance of ASEAN partnerships in reducing emissions in the Indo-Pacific region. The Australian understands similar projects in Northern Australia connecting with other nations in the region are likely in coming years.
Trade Minister Dan Tehan will head to Jakarta next Tuesday to discuss advancement of the Indonesian manufacturing sector.
The Sun Cable decision comes after the Prime Minister last week announced Australia would build a fleet of nuclear submarines. Mr Morrison spoke with Indonesian President Joko Widodo this week to assure him Australia would maintain its obligations under the nuclear non-proliferation treaty and that the AUKUS military pact would support stability in the Indo-Pacific.
The AAPowerLink, expected to reduce Singapore’s emissions by 6 million tonnes per year and help the country meet its 2030 targets, was a prominent addition in Australia’s infrastructure priority list released in February.
The project will support more than $8bn of direct investment and generate up to $2bn in exports per year, creating more than 1500 jobs during construction, 350 operational jobs and 12,000 indirect jobs. It will start supplying energy to Darwin in 2026 and Singapore from 2027.
Sun Cable chief executive David Griffin said “we want this world-leading project to create a step-change in the Indo-Pacific’s capability to achieve net zero ambitions and economic growth sustained by renewable energy”.
Sun Cable will work with Indonesian authorities during and following construction of the AAPowerLink. They have already engaged Indonesian firms during the planning, engineering and survey phase and would help the country develop its own battery manufacturing industry.
Sun Cable will also base its maritime repair and maintenance base in Indonesia, featuring one of the world’s largest cable laying vessels.
Mr Cannon-Brookes, the Atlassian co-founder and chief executive, said Australia could become a “renewable energy superpower”.
“We can and should tap into our solar resources that could power the world five times over,” Mr Cannon-Brookes said.
Mr Forrest said decarbonising the planet was “a challenge all people and all nations must rise to”.
“But it is action, not words that are required. I commend Minister Luhut’s leadership, strong action towards this goal,” he said.
Australia’s Ambassador to Indonesia, Penny Williams, praised the Indonesian government for its support and said “Australia believes in a technology-driven approach to combating climate change”.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^The distance to Singapore in a straight line is 4,370 kilometers, so add about a thousand to that from the point of logistics of laying marine cable. Adding to that the weather window to lay cable would have to halt in cyclone season.
looking at it from a further logistical standpoint account has to be taken for the current flow from the Torres Strait & Sunda Strait that can have, not unusualy, current flows of 9 to 13 knots. Compounding this is depths in northern Australia aren’t that deep presenting a challenge for cable integrity but acute drop off to depths around 5000 metres in blue waters further north in the island groups that were formed from volcanic activity (many moons ago obviously)
As far as transmission goes it is well known that there is a voltage drop over distance and to achieve greater distance requires not only a greater amperage but the power has to be at a constant cycle (ie 50Hz out of the wind or solar farm), so there needs to be some capacity to control intermittent cycling of the current flow, a sparky would have a greater insight than i do in this regard.

How deep is the scam when even scientists and medical professionals are either part of it, or prefer to stay ignorant and run with whatever is the narrative handed to them?
I put a comment under the article in the NT News (it’s also in other News Ltd papers):
My understanding of the physics here is that there will be considerable voltage drop over such a distance. The longest subsea cable in the world seems to be about 600 kilometres in Norway. Is this cable capable of transmitting power without such loss as to make it unviable?
The electricity also would have to be DC as there is too much loss in AC sent over such a distance. Then there would need to be conversion – and further reduction – in changing over to AC in Singapore.
I was wondering why we were seeing lots of Vic Police ‘BearCats’.
Then I found out they were intended for ‘sieges or apprehension of armed offenders’. So they were NOT meant for ‘sieges or apprehension’ of UNARMED, PEACEFUL protesters.
Vic Police taking liberties with our Liberty
“Rome has reverted to her old ways, preferring the tribute of the world and the slavery of money and influence to the work of Christ going out to bring good news to those living in darkness.
The pope prostitutes himself out as chaplain to the globalists who designed the pandemic which has been gasoline to the wildfire of world revolution.
…
The Church has been turned into an East German bureaucracy. The name of Rome is no longer welcome, but political conformity.
The pope is antichrist. Think about it, ask yourself whether what I say is true. “Get behind Me, Satan!” has become, “How may I be of service, Dark Prince?”
Is it hyperbole? Francis dictates that all who pass through the colonnades of St. Peter’s be marked with the beast and boast of it with vaccine paperwork. The connection between Francis’ vaccine mandates (to say nothing of Biden’s) and the globalists over whom Francis presides is undeniable.
If you don’t think that the Vatican is insisting you get the vaccine so that Bergoglio can appease Pachamama, then you haven’t been paying attention.”
“The electricity also would have to be DC as there is too much loss in AC sent over such a distance. Then there would need to be conversion – and further reduction – in changing over to AC in Singapore.”
Other way round: solar produces DC which cannot be transported over long distances and would have to be converted to AC, at great expense, for the trip.
The numerous public examples recorded of Vic Police brutality now require an urgent independent judicial inquiry. In a democracy there’s no excuse for the repeated application of excessive force & sustained, unsafe use of pepper spray where person presents no threat to Vic Police.

***********************************
To Add to my earlier comments on the logistics of laying cable, i have all the charts to work out a pathway for a cable to be run that distance.
I’ll do a plot and try to work out the time frame to lay cable using previous data from similar operations.
I will factor in time delay and or vessel replenishment at sea as i am very familiar with the sea conditions in SE Asia and especially Pacific Rim.
Give me a week or so and i can send at least a base line for the logistics for doing this.
