Fitzgibbon wants to soften federal Labor's renewable energy policy.
Meanwhile every state and territory has a zero emissions policy and is actually stepping up the advance into low emission technology.
" What’s become clear is that this isn’t a corner the government is backed into: they’re actually being surrounded on all sides. Every single state and territory in Australia has established a net zero by 2050 target, and most importantly, these plans are beginning to manifest in policy changes that we can track, analyse and quantify, in terms of changes in the emissions footprint in each state. "
I think Joel might have hitched his wagon to the wrong donkey.
And then we have this progress in Qld.
" The Queensland state Labor government has appointed Australia’s first dedicated minister for hydrogen, with Mick de Brenni appointed as the new minister for energy, renewables and hydrogen in the new Palaszczuk ministry.
It is the first appointment of an Australian minister explicitly dedicated to hydrogen, providing an indication of the key role the Palaszczuk government expects hydrogen to play in both the local economy and as a major new export opportunity for the state.
Mick de Brenni will become the second member of an Australian state or federal cabinet to be appointed to a dedicated ‘renewables’ ministry, after current NT minister for energy and renewables, Natasha Fyles. "
