Chris Bowen launches brutal post-election attack on critics – He pushes for plans to phase out coal-fired power plants
Chris Bowen, citing Labor’s mountain election victory, citing evidence of suburban voters and Bush’s support for the switch to renewable energy, is his green energy driver’s redouble its efforts.
The Minister of Climate Change and Energy claims that the “silent majority” of Australians support solar and wind farms and is backed by natural gas and storage.
Peter Dutton describes the 2025 election as a referendum on Australia’s energy choice. Bowen wrote in an article. Australian newspaper.
“And the outcome of the referendum is clear: Australians want experts to support an affordable program in times of uncertainty.”
Although Mr Bowen calls his energy policy “affordable,” Australia is actually one of the world’s highest electricity prices, despite having a lot of natural gas, coal and uranium.
The rise in electricity prices is so big that the government is forced to use taxpayers’ money to subsidize household electricity bills.
Bowen cited candidates to advocate for swings on seats at offshore wind farms, such as Bass and Bradon in Tasmania, which is adjacent to the Bayss Straits offshore wind energy zone.
He slammed the coalition’s nuclear policy, repeating Labour’s terror campaign price tag of $600 billion, while insisting that it’s all about “ensure internal political peace at all costs.”

Bowen added: “Dutton paid a particularly high price for Ted O’Brien’s nuclear policy: 47% of Dickson voters said nuclear policy was the reason they withhold their support in the leadership constituency.”
Labor donor Smart Energy Council proposed a $600 billion price when it turned to nuclear power, but independent Body Frontier Economics said the alliance’s plans only cost about $331 billion.
Bowen, 52, targeted the fallacy in his argument against renewable energy: they were supported by inner city residents and opposed by people in suburban and rural communities.
He wrote: “One of the great myths of the Australian climate change debate is that inner city residents support strong climate action, while the rest of us are cold or hostile.”
In fact, people in the suburbs are transitioning and benefiting from it.
“The top three suburbs in NSW benefit from our electric vehicle discounts, not in the inner city or the North Shore. They are Baulkham Hills, Marsden Park and Kellyville, located in the northwest of Sydney.
“You are more likely to see electric cars in Werribe than Toorak.”
He added: “When it comes to solar panels, Blacktown (my voter) has 10 times higher solar array than Bondy (his seat at Wentworth).
While Bowen will still argue with conservative commentators about the fact that “the unpopular renewable energy is, at least now there are real-world data to remind us how wrong they are”.
Despite concerns about the reliability of the grid and the high cost impact on the business, especially the residual impact of manufacturing, he promised to replace Australia’s aging coal-fired power stations with renewable energy.
By 2030, the Labor Administration’s ambitious target is to consist of 82% renewable energy.
On Tuesday, new liberal leader Sussan Ley will not confirm or deny whether the coalition will abandon its nuclear policy or its commitment to achieving zero carbon dioxide emissions by 2050.
