Sky News Australia Sky News host Chris Kenny says Energy Minister Chris Bowen in parliament on Monday vowed to keep Australians “in the dark” about the cost of Labor’s new green energy scheme.
Mr Kenny’s remarks come after Mr Bowen announced an expansion of the Capacity Investment Scheme, which will underwrite funding for 32 gigawatts of renewable energy projects in Australia.
The Climate Change and Energy Minister has since refused to detail the cost of the green energy scheme amid criticism from the Opposition.
“I was pretty fired up last week ... about the frightening decision by Climate and Energy Minister Chris Bowen to have the government bankroll, that is guarantee with taxpayers’ money, 32 gigawatts of renewable energy projects,” Mr Kenny said.
“As Labor continues to plunge in the polls, they fail to understand how soaring power prices, and their impact on the broader cost of living issues, are hurting mainstream voters and damaging the country.
“There is a long way to go – as I keep saying, this energy chaos will be their downfall.”
