Isramart : Premier see benefits in carbon trading plan

Isramart news:
The Tasmanian Premier expects the state to benefit from the proposed carbon trading scheme.

David Bartlett says the state generates 75 per cent of its energy from renewable sources and the Government is trying to reduce costs to Tasmanians.

He says there are opportunities in the carbon pollution reduction scheme for the state.

“Tasmania through the combination of the CPRS and the mandatory renewable energy target, through all the treasury modelling, is the only state that shows a net positive economic benefit.”
