Victoria is now facing a real risk of summer blackouts — and the reason is simple: Australia’s political obsession with renewables is putting our energy security in danger.

A recent report from the Victorian Auditor-General confirms that the rapid shutdown of baseload power, combined with major delays in transmission infrastructure, has left the state exposed to supply shortages and grid instability. This is not political commentary — it is an official warning from the government’s own independent watchdog.

What the Auditor-General Confirmed

• Yallourn’s closure threatens more than 20% of Victoria’s supply

• Transmission projects are years behind

• Blackout risk is rising

• Political targets are overtaking engineering reality

This is the predictable result of an energy strategy based on ideology rather than common sense.

Net Zero Is Driving Higher Costs and Lower Reliability

Across Australia, the consequences of a renewable approach are clear:

• Higher electricity bills

• Increasing blackout risk

• Farmland lost to transmission lines

• Gas restrictions despite abundant reserves

• Offshore wind projects threatening coastal environments

Wind, solar, and batteries alone cannot power an industrialised nation — and they cannot secure Australia’s long-term energy needs.

One Nation’s Plan: Reliable, Affordable, Australian Energy

One Nation offers the only practical, common sense  approach to restore energy security, lower electricity prices, and keep the lights on.

We will:

• Scrap net-zero targets and return to sensible energy planning

• Modernise coal and expand natural gas supply

• Introduce clean, reliable nuclear power

• Protect farmland and coastal environments

• End renewable subsidies and stop forced transmission projects

• Build a diverse energy mix — coal, gas, hydro, nuclear, geothermal, and appropriate renewables

Australia has the resources.
Australia has the technology. What Australia lacks is politicians who are willing to put Australians first. 

A Wake-Up Call for the Nation

Only One Nation is standing up for an energy strategy that is:

✔ Reliable
✔ Affordable
✔ Environmentally responsible
✔ In the national interest

It’s time to protect Australia’s energy security and reduce electricity costs.
