We\u2019ve seen what\u2019s happened in other jurisdictions like Germany where they\u2019ve moved frankly too fast towards renewables. Their costs are some of the highest in the world for their electricity. We\u2019ve got enough cost of living pressure here in Australia as it is, and we don\u2019t want to add to that.
