Objectives

• Advocate for a technology-neutral energy policy that prioritises affordability and reliability.

• Raise awareness of how the current energy transition is damaging Australia's unique natural heritage.

• Build public understanding of how energy costs flow through to industry and communities, affecting every part of daily life.

C4C’s Affordable Energy campaign reflects our commitment to practical energy policy that supports flourishing communities, productive industries and a thriving natural environment. Through this work, we seek to build public understanding of how energy costs affect every sphere of life, all the way from everyday grocery items to our industrial competitiveness as a nation. Affordable, reliable power is essential for Australian families, communities and businesses to prosper.

As households struggle to keep up with rising living costs due to poor energy policy, environmental protection becomes harder for everyday Australians to prioritise. In the current energy crisis, getting affordability and reliability right is essential not only for economic stability, but also for building the conditions in which Australia’s natural environment can be properly protected and preserved over the long term.
