My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Minister Wong. Minister Wong, people in your state of South Australia are paying an average cost of 35c per kilowatt hour compared to: 22c in Victoria, 25c in Queensland, 26c in Tasmania, 28c in New South Wales and 30c in Western Australia. Will the minister please explain why the state with the highest penetration of renewables also has the highest electricity prices in the nation while your government keeps claiming renewables are cheaper?
