"Australia should be the affordable energy capital of the world" and  "Australia has a super abundance of coal and gas"

Yes Tony I agree to the first which is why I have Solar PV. The sun is free! We also have a superabundance of solar generated electricity which is now as cheap as electricity generated by highly polluting coal and gas.
The answers to the problem of variable supply are already here, it just needs government and investment policies that encourage implementation. This is where the RET and the Australian Clean Energy Finance Corporation comes in.
But I forget, these are organisations you and your government have decided not to listen to or value. Thus I am cynical your RET review will deliver anything other than what the Coal and Gas lobbies would like.

See the Renew Economy report on 2 million small solar installations to see what we have achieved in a few short years.
