Is the CSIRO’s coal analysis neutral? | Zoe Hilton

Описание: Politicians love telling Australians that renewables are the cheapest form of energy, and none more than energy minister Chris Bowen. The source he cites is GenCost, the CSIRO’s annual report on generation technology cost estimates, which claims to be policy and technology-neutral. But is the CSIRO neutral when it comes to coal?
