The Climate Change Minister refused to promise that energy prices would decrease, and that retail prices would determine the political success of the Albanian government’s new emission target.
ABC speaks at 7.30 last night, Chris Bowen The prices were “very important için for public support between 62% and 70% for public support for the 2035 emission reduction target, but the government balanced climate change and life costs. He said:
The Australians want to see the climate action, but they also care about the cost of living because every day before them… [but] The basic truth is that what is good for your pocket is good and vice versa for the planet.
Bowen refused to guarantee that electricity prices would decrease as the country sets a period of time as it adopts renewable energy or for a period of time for Australians to save solar and wind purchase. Instead, he drew attention to the government modeling showing that lower prices are likely:
I can guarantee that renewable energy is the cheapest energy form. … In the face of international energy pressures, we have never claimed that all of this happened easily or faster, but we are not far from the fact that renewable energies are the cheapest form of energy known to humanity.
