The Coalition has unveiled analysis showing its 5 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 2: proposed nuclear policy could cost an estimated three hundred billion dollars. 6 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 2: Opposition leader Peter Dutton outlined more details today about the 7 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 2: coalition's energy plan, which it's pledged to roll out if 8 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,599 Speaker 2: it wins next year's election. Dutton described the proposal as 9 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 2: a balanced mix of zero emission's nuclear energy alongside renewables 10 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 2: and gas.

However, 12 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 2: recent analysis by the CSIRO found nuclear power is not 13 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 2: the most competitive solution for lower mission electricity in Australia. 14 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 2: It said the length of time it would take to 15 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,120 Speaker 2: establish nuclear power here means it won't be able to 16 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 2: make a significant contribution to achieving net zero emissions by 17 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,040 Speaker 2: twenty fifty. The Labour government has criticized the coalition's plan, 18 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 2: saying the costings it presented today were quote riddled with 19 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 2: errors and assumptions.

Quantus claims it's offering a competitive package 31 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: to workers and says it has put contingencies in place 32 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: to avoid delays for travelers.

Musk's 47 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: recent wealth boost has also been attributed in part to 48 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: the sale of some of his space X shares. 49 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: And some good news for your Friday afternoon, American basketball 50 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: at Caitlin Clark has been named the Time Athlete of 51 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: the Year.
