Renewable energy okay to be 'part of your mix' but not the 'essence of the system

Nationals MP David Gillespie says renewables are okay to be “part of your mix”. This follows concerns regarding Labor’s insistence on renewable energy over nuclear power. “It’s okay to have renewables to be part of your mix, but you can’t make it the essence of the system.” Mr Gillespie told Sky News Australia. “The very best technology the world has got is available for us if we get rid of these ridiculous prohibitions.”
