RepuTex director Hugh Grossman says the Coalition’s Emissions Reduction Fund will not help Australia to achieve its 2030 carbon emissions reduction targets by itself. The fund, which has been renamed the Climate Solutions Fund, pays polluters for securing carbon abatement. However, it has been criticised for not penalising the biggest polluters and compelling them to change their behaviour. The Grattan Institute’s Tony Wood says the energy sector can be expected to adopt a more conciliatory approach to the Coalition, given that it was widely expected to lose the federal election.
