What can the Government do for the energy sector?

Early Edition with Ryan Bridge - A podcast by Newstalk ZB

Electricity prices in New Zealand are about six times higher than Australia, this week sitting at around $700 per megawatt; while in late 2021 they were $100 per megawatt. Multiple large scale businesses are proposing the idea of shutting down as a result of the high prices, and the Government is now looking at possible intervention. Energy Resources Aotearoa Chief Executive John Carnegie joins Ryan Bridge on Early Edition to discuss what that may look like.  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
