I want a future made in Australia.
Our Solar SunShot program is a record investment in making solar panels here.
Australia already has the highest uptake of household solar panels in the world, but only a tiny fraction were made here.
We're changing that.
And we'll export solar panels to the world, creating secure jobs for the Hunter in NSW.
It's what real action on climate change looks like, made the Australian way.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE | 28 MARCH 2024
Government approves Santos Barossa pipeline and sea dumping
Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek's Department has approved a major part of Santos' controversial Barossa gas export project, the Darwin Pipeline Duplication Project.
The approval was made on 15 March, but only published on the DCCEEW website at 5:15 pm on 27 March, at the end of the parliamentary week and shortly before the Easter holidays.
"The Santos Barossa Project is the dirtiest gas project in Australia and should not proceed on climate grounds alone," said Rod Campbell, Research Director at The Australia Institute.
"But Barossa is even worse than other gas projects, not just due to its CO₂ content, but because of the staunch opposition of Tiwi Island Traditional Owners.
"The Federal Government has already bent over backwards for this project, rushing its 'favour for Santos' Bill through the parliament

Thermal coal exports was one of my 'hedgehog' charts showing persistent forecasts of level exports, even though it was falling but er......it is now VERY not falling, and even the latest forecast now seems to **understate** what thermal coal exports will do (!!)

a chart showing forecasts for thermal coal exports persistent even though it was dropping - but now it's rising

Australia and South Africa - two nations with abundance of sunshine - two nations addicted to coal and corrupt politicians.

This is bullshit. The $ here are NOT for solar. It's a blatant, pathetic attempt to cover over the new gas and the increased coal. This is insulting.
