Renewable energy to beat Labor’s 50 per cent ‘wrecking ball’ target – Sydney Morning Herald
The Morrison government’s renewables target now matches the Labor policy it slammed during the 2019 election.
At the time, the Coalition criticised Labor for mandating a target without plans to balance the rapid rise of renewables in the grid. It cited modelling from BAEconomics which found the party’s twin climate targets could cut the average wage by more than $8000 and cost as many as 300,000 jobs.
Mr Taylor said on Sunday the Morrison government supported renewables with its commitment to integrate wind and solar in the grid by backing the Australian Energy Market Operator’s plans.
