Glenn Lazarus says the RET is working without pushing up power prices and only climate sceptics want to ditch it
The Palmer United party has reiterated that it will block any change to the renewable energy target (RET), with PUP Senate leader Glenn Lazarus blaming climate change sceptics for pushing abolition.
A government-commissioned review into the RET, headed by the businessman and climate change sceptic Dick Warburton, concluded that while it has largely achieved its aims and helped create jobs in clean energy, it should be either wound back or cut off entirely.
