The government and the opposition have been fighting over power strategies for months now; just about assaulting us with a flurry of numbers and claims over which method will lead to cheaper household bills.
And now, the Coalition has announced a shock new gas policy. So, is Peter Dutton’s unprecedented scheme just a bid to win political points, rather than a legitimate means to keep our appliances running, and us warm, at relatively little cost? Or is the opposition leader on to a winner?
Today, business reporter Nick Toscano, and climate and energy reporter Mike Foley, help us wade through the spin, to tell us which energy plan is best: for both us, and the environment.
