Energy

• Restore 100% energy independence to Australia, so we are economically self-reliant.
• Allow businesses to engage in oil and mineral exploration subject to strict guidlines and environmental impact standards.
• Reopen and build new oil refineries so we are not dependent on foreign powers for our oil supply.
• Only subsidise energy generation forms that pay their own way and demonstrate the capacity for large-scale energy generation.
• Support the construction of a nuclear power station with safe storage of nuclear waste.
• Support fracking only where it will not adversely affect primary production or groundwater. Long-term effects must be taken into consideration before any approvals are given.
• Encourage off-grid energy generation to reduce stress on the electricity grid.
