In 2018, Australia had the largest per capita level of investment in clean energy in the world—more than the UK, Germany and France combined. We're working to deliver Snowy 2.0, the Battery of the Nation, the National Hydrogen Strategy and investment in bioenergy and lithium research. Labor is hopelessly divided on energy and has abandoned the climate platform it took to the last election. We call on all Labor senators to follow the lead of the shadow minister for agriculture and resources and endorse the government's sensible climate policy and agenda instead of pursuing reckless targets that will hit Australian families and small business the hardest.
