Australia’s top science agency has made a rare political intervention as CSIRO chief executive Doug Hilton defended his agency’s findings on the costs of nuclear power against an attack from Peter Dutton, who claimed the work was discredited and questioned its integrity., which advises investors on the cost of electricity production from energy systems, including renewable energy, coal generation and nuclear plants.
“We need to compare apples with apples … that report that was released, it doesn’t take into consideration all of the costs around renewables. I’m strongly in favour of renewables, but we need to keep the lights on and we need to keep our prices down,” Dutton said.“All I’m saying is let’s have a fair comparison, instead of a skewed one, and that’s why I was critical of that particular report, not of the CSIRO in general, and I think it was a fair point to make.
Hilton said CSIRO was “absolutely technology neutral” and asked politicians to respect science and work with his agency on its mission to resolve challenges confronting Australia.“The role of CSIRO is to present the community and all of our elected representatives and government with the best possible data and models on which to found their policies.
The opposition is calling for a moratorium on the renewable rollout, claiming local opposition to transmission lines has crippled its social licence while arguing the infrastructure costs are too high.
