‘Net zero comedy show’: Chris Bowen blasted for ‘lowballed cost’ of power transition

Sky News host Rowan Dean has blasted Energy Minister Chris Bowen for his “lowballed cost” of transitioning Australia’s power. Mr Dean said there are claims the energy minister “lowballed" the cost of transitioning the country’s power grid to net zero by as much as a hundred billion dollars. “What’s that to a Labor pollie?” Mr Dean said. “That’s a hundred billion dollars of your money extra that’s going to be splurged in this net zero comedy show.” The Sky News host said Mr Bowen has been “wasting all our money on hopelessly inefficient renewables”.
