We will deliver cheaper energy

Labor's 'renewables only' policy continues to drive-up power prices.

Electricity and gas prices have gone up by 32 per cent (without rebates) and 34 per cent respectively (as at February 2025).

For small businesses, electricity prices are up to 52% higher under Labor, and gas is up to 43% higher.

Renewables have a role to play in our energy system.

But we can't rely on weather-dependent energy alone.

We need power 24/7 – especially for our hospitals, factories and freezers that need to operate around the clock.

Australia has three energy goals:

1. Cheaper power.
 2. Consistent power.
 3. Cleaner power.

We won't achieve these goals under Labor's 'renewables only' policy, but we can achieve all three.

By following the other top 20 economies in the world which use zero-emission nuclear power or are taking steps to put it in their mix.

And by ramping-up domestic gas production for affordable and reliable energy in the more immediate term.
