Sky News host Liz Storer has criticised renewable energy projects as Western governments have “now spent $2.7 trillion” on projects but they are “yet to see value for money”.
Alinta Energy Chief Executive Jeff Dimery said at the National Press Club on Wednesday that Australians will have to pay more for energy in the future as the country transitions to renewables.
“Across the Western world, our governments have now spent $2.7 trillion rolling out renewable energy, and every single country is yet to see value for money,” Ms Storer told Sky News host Chris Kenny.
“We keep being told … this is the cheapest form of power.
“We are simply not seeing that.”
