on these pages last week served as further proof – if any was needed – of his lack of understanding of the National Electricity Market, and Labor’s lack of concern when it comes to keeping electricity bills low for Australian consumers.is largely unfunded fails even the most basic test. Thirteen months on from his appointment as the opposition spokesman for climate change and energy, it is clear he still has his training wheels on – as his colleague, Joel Fitzgibbon, famously put it.
Ours is a prudent approach, based on expert advice and a careful consideration of the costs and benefits to consumers. We are funding those projects identified as part of an optimal development pathway, while monitoring others where the economics don’t yet stack up. Transmission infrastructure is a regulated asset, meaning its owners have a guaranteed rate of return over the life of the project, which can be up to 50 years. These costs, in turn, are passed on to consumers.
Households, businesses and manufacturers cannot withstand another round of gold-plating and waste under Labor.
Don’t need to be an ex-McKinsey hack to know numbersout of Taylor’s office are loose - just ask Clover Moore. This is the guy that didn’t even know Eraring was closing 7 years early when NSW Gov knew for at least six months. He wouldn’t know what a transmission line looks like.
This will end up like the NBN. Pandering media supports LNP claims of gold plating and we end up with another second rate, not fit for purpose disaster.
So who pays for the Kurri Kurri white elephant?
Aust govts (both) have set the bar sooooooo low that we threw the towel in generations ago..higher living costs? Ha..i eat them for breakfast
Fuel price over $2 what does that have to do with Labor or price of fish? Fear mongering is becoming tedious
Nobody believes you Angus ,bring our fuel from US,that’s if they let us have it ?
So the Fairfax media have started their anti Labor scaremongering campaigning.?...just hope the 'punters' can see through it this time round.
Has the AFR become a copy/paste of Taylor's media releases now?
There’s nothing more alarming for right wing than the thought of planning for the future and creating some jobs along the way. If they see it happening, they’ll destroy it. eg NBN
We don’t need opinion. We need facts.
Don’t expect the ABC to cover this issue
