Sky News host Chris Kenny says amid the debate surrounding the feasibility of renewables and coal, it will actually be “gas-fired power that saves the day in Australia”. Mr Kenny said Tuesday’s parliamentary sitting saw more of federal politicians “tearing themselves apart” over coal-fired generation.
Government MPs continue to trade blows after Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced $4 million funding for a feasibility study into a new coal plant in Collinsville. Mr Kenny said the discussion around a new coal plant is "is not the be-all and end all when it comes to our energy need”. “With so much renewable power already in place … and with all the climate activism, it will be gas-fired power that saves the day in Australia.
You'd have thought that Such an EXPERT - whould Not have to waste his Insightful Brilliance, on Such a non-rating TV 'show'

Replacing one finite resource with another. Way to go. There is no hope for this man. None. Zilch. Zip. Zero.
Then howard really doomed us then....
Chris Kenny has been wrong about everything he’s ever said, so first time for everything I guess? But I doubt it.
Will the gas cost the same as what we're selling it to Asia, or what we're paying. Light years apart.
gosh I must've missed the science PhD presentation for Mr Kenny...
NOPE!
Does this halfwit know that gas is from coal 🔥 the only way forward is through renewables ie wind and solar power! Chris Kerry really isn’t very bright but that’s why he’s on newscorpaus
Kenny makes a living out of being wrong. He’s done it again.
The gas we sold to other countries and will get jack for?
Nothing will save is if Labor/Greens are elected. auspol
He knows nothing on this subject
Breaking: Chris Kenny: Coal not number 1, Gas is. Maybe we could buy our gas back off the Japanese so its cheaper? It was in 2016 and... still is in 2019. It's still cheaper to buy Aussie gas in Japan than it is Australia - MacroBusiness
Are the loonies from the Nationals who want subsidized coal power stations off their rocker? Due to climate change largely caused by coal burning we are in the midst of drought, bushfires, floods and cyclones. Are those MPs the arse end of the world? Wake up Australia.
The Turnbulls will not be happy they don't have money invested in gas.
Yes this is the “cult of St Greta”... shut down nuclear power stations and replace them with gas fired stations...
Thanks Chris. I was just thinking “what does a random presenter on SkyMews think about coal power”
And where does Mr Kenny get his expertise? Is he a professor? A scientist? A engineer ? A moron ClimateCrisis skyscum Murdoch Shitman
True
Gas is the Champagne of fuels. Even the Churchill’s had to downshift to whisky & soda
No no no
But greenies don't think that. Only renewables are acceptable.
Ooh, ooh, let me guess, the same fossil fuel companies that own coal own gas as well as the LNP!
WATCH THIS & you will realise why TURNBULL is the greatest grub in Australian political history !!! The hypocrisy of this bloke is immeasurable !! Was he lying then or is he lying now .. you decide.
Climate and energy expert Chris Kenny to the rescue! 😂
Where does Kenny get his facts from ?.
Oh well, that's ruined gas's chance of being taken seriously then.
Kenny yet again proving to the world he is a fool rather than remaining silent
How about telling Adam Bandt that message in plain English simple enough for him to no longer live in denial AdamBandt
.. claims: uninformed man has opinion on something he's ill-equipped to have to opinion on
Nationalise the gas industry and reserve for local consumption. What a commo.
CK never gets it wrong. 🤔🤔
Fossil fuels save the day? You guys would be hilarious if you weren’t serious. Fossil fuels cause climate heating. Renewables will obviously save the day if we allow them to.
Poor Chris. Always behind the 🎱
Nuclear is an old technology, move on.
Chris Kenny - come back to Twitter. We cop it from these foaming mouthed LWFW’s every day, harden up and get back here.
😂 not if Angus remains.
Nuclear hear and now..
Saves what day? Why can't the rest of Australia do what SA did with renewables and a battery - and enjoy lower electricity costs as well?
It's a shame we can't use all the hot air produced by Chris Kenny to generate electricity.
