    Not at all true.

    The Australian grid is quite easily seen to be reducing other sources, ergo, reducing demand.

      Indeed.

      In addition, there’s a lot of consumption that was non-electric (e.g. transport, heating) that is moving to electric. Most of the increased grid consumption is not new consumption, it’s consumption that was previously direct fossil fuels.

      The exception is basically bitcoin and AI, plus electrification of underdeveloped areas.
