We’ll support 59,000 renewable energy jobs.
Labor will end our reliance on privatised coal and transition Victoria to cleaner, cheaper renewable electricity – creating thousands of jobs.
We’ll bring back the State Electricity Commission, and build new wind, solar and batteries. The Government will own a majority in each new project.
The Latrobe Valley has always been the centre of Victorian energy generation – and we’ll make sure it’s part of our clean energy future.
That’s why we’ll invest at least $20 million to bring back the SEC and set up an office in Morwell.
We’ll invest $6 million to create a purpose-built training centre for workers in our emerging offshore - and growing onshore - wind industry.
By building a Government-owned energy company we’ll support 59,000 jobs through to 2035.
Jobs in our cities, suburbs and regions – in solar, wind and emerging energy industries.
Only Labor will create thousands of good, new renewable energy jobs and put the power back in the hands of Victorians.
