Coal and gas price ‘spikes’ are costing Australian families and businesses

New South Wales Energy Minister Matt Kean says coal and gas price “spikes” are feeding through to energy price rises for families and businesses around Australia. “We’re working with the commonwealth to put downward pressure on electricity prices, we’ve done our bit here with the coal cap,” Mr Kean told Sky News Australia. “We’ve put $330 million worth of energy bill relief on the table to support families and businesses at this difficult time – this is not just a national problem, it’s an international problem driven by the illegal war in Ukraine. “We’ve seen huge spikes in the price of coal – in the price of gas and that’s feeding through to domestic energy prices.” Via news.com.au — Australia’s leading news site https://www.news.com.au
