Energy prices are ‘driven by global conditions, not domestic supply conditions’

Energy Consumers Australia CEO Lynne Gallagher says energy prices are driven by global conditions, not domestic supply conditions.

“I think there’s a whole discussion about supply that’s been brought into this, which always gets brought up when we’re talking about prices,” she told Sky News Australia.

“According to the ACCC, Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, we have enough uncontracted gas supply available to be used in electricity generation in the eastern states.”
