Shock power bill jump. How is this possible when energy minister says the renewable energy we increasingly have is cheaper. Could it be that he’s blinded by ideology?!

Pretty much …. It’s insane that our Government is doing this - Australia has huge energy reserves … but no, because of ideology everyday Aussies have to suffer …, so much for Labor being the “worker’s” party - they’re for special interest groups ONLY these days

"...we need to be clear before continuing that by “ideology” is meant here something closer to “cult ideology” than a more general meaning of the term. It is crucial to distinguish between these..."

1. Climate policies & renewable subsidies cost Australian households around $13 billion per year, or $1300 per household. Senator Roberts commissioned economist Dr Alan Moran to use all existing government data to examine the true cost of climate policies.

the answer is really quite simple. Renewable energy is many times more expensive.

It’s the simply dwindling supplies of base load power. Renewables are cheap, because of subsidies but costs big $ to integrate into the grid. Base load is becoming scarce so becomes valuable. Build a few CFPS’s, or better still nuclear, & prices will drop.
