One Nation has unveiled its Victorian energy policy, committing to the development of coal-fired power plants and lifting the state’s ban on nuclear energy. Party leader Pauline Hanson and state leader Warren Pickering announced the plan during a visit to the Latrobe Valley, a region historically reliant on brown coal. The policy signals a significant departure from current state energy strategies focused on renewables. Hanson argued coal is necessary for reliable base-load power and to lower energy prices. Pickering emphasized the potential of modern nuclear technology as a clean and efficient energy source. The proposal is likely to spark considerable debate given environmental concerns and existing state legislation. This move positions One Nation as a strong advocate for traditional energy sources within Victoria.
