'Big stick' energy law needs Labor support - energy storage companies

The Morrison administration tried to turn the Labor party around, accusing it of not wanting to pass the "great stick" energy law because it was too close to the power companies.
Laws allowing the federal government to split big energy companies have been widely criticized, including consumers and competition regulators.
They are expected to vote in parliament last week, but the government has shelved its debate plan.
Now, Energy Minister Angus Taylor says the question of when this legislation will come back is Labor's.
"If the bill shortens and says today I am ready to work with you to hold these big energy companies accountable, it will pass through parliament immediately," he told Sky News on Monday . ".
"There have been a lot of legislation in the last few years where the Labor Party has taken the wrong position and we see this here because they are weak on big energy companies, because they are too right from the company.

"There are no friends in this policy because it will actually raise the price," she told Sky News . ".

At the same time, another piece of the government's remaining several energy policy aspects is being undermined by legal advice that shows that plans to fund new investments in energy generation are constitutional violations.
The legal opinion commissioned by the Australian Institute said that the government would either need new legislation to support spending on the project or send cash through clean energy finance companies to finance gas or coal projects.
But Mr Taylor believes no new legislation is needed.
Asked him if he accepted the lawyer's advice.
General, he said: "We know we have a legislative mandate to do this.
"The Clean Energy Commission said that in the upcoming polls, key reforms in the energy market and policies to combat climate change will be important factors.
"We need to put away our big stick and take the real reform of the energy market seriously," council chief executive Kane Thornton said in an election policy directive issued on Monday.
