Dutton claims that his nuclear 'plan' will be cheaper than the governments renewables plan.
Only problem with that is Dutton's 'plan' still requires 90%+ of energy to come from renewables.

Simplistically 50% of current power is coming from renewables so another 50% needs to generated from somewhere post 2050.
Duttons plan is that 80% of that additional power will come from renewables & 20% from nuclear.

So even if you accept his ludicrous claim that 1.2 trillion AUD is required for the goverment renewables plan his 'plan' will still require 1.0 trillion+ AUD to generate the remaining 80% not generated by renewables PLUS the cost of 7 uncosted nuclear plants, decomissioning & waste storage costs.

Yet apparently his 'plan' is still cheaper!
