Turnbull seeks to woo reluctant states to Australia's energy plan

Canberra

PRIME Minister Malcolm Turnbull's government will provide modelling to the states in a bid to get them to back its proposed "national energy guarantee" to bolster reliability of Australia's faltering electricity grid.

"It's in the country's interest and it's in the states' interests to get on board with this," Energy Minister Josh Frydenberg said in an Australian Broadcasting Corp television interview on Sunday.
