Victoria's energy failures have ‘implications' for other states
MST Financial Senior Energy Analyst Saul Kavonic says the Victorian governments failures on energy policy have 'implications' for other states in Australia.
'Taxpayer funded imports – the Victorian government is looking to force that onto federal coffers so we are all going to end up paying for it,' Mr Kavonic told Sky News host Peta Credlin.
'To actually have an import terminal, you are looking at not just a few hundred million dollars for the terminal itself, but you are going to have to start importing gas year-round, buying on an international market ... it's a multibillion-dollar taxpayer commitment.'
