Followers of this column will be familiar with my ongoing view that we are paying too high a price, socially and financially, for energy. South Australians pay the highest prices in the world for an unreliable system and Queenslanders are not far behind - although our systems are more robust. There is no choice here when it comes to our power, unless of course we go off grid. We have to deal with Ergon, so the government de facto calls the shots.
Upcoming Events
Advance Cairns runs regular events for members and stakeholders across the region that aim to inform and catalyse debate around our advocacy issues and provide members with latest information on industry and regional developments.
Events include member only forums, networking sundowners, special event luncheons such as annual Budget Lunch with the Treasurer and industry forums.
Our Infrastructure and Policy advocacy positions are available now.
