The Abbott Government recently commissioned Dick Warburton to conduct a review of Australia’s Renewable Energy Target (RET)
The RET is designed to ensure that 20 per cent of Australia’s electricity comes from renewable sources by 2020.
The Warburton review recommends either closing the RET to new entrants or reducing the target rate of renewable energy. Both options will discourage greater investment in renewable energy in Australia.
Matt Thistlethwaite will present the signed petitions to the Parliament on behalf of our community.
