And has been resisting calls for it to accelerate plans to shut down its coal fired power plants. Which has put it in conflict with Mike Cannon-Brookes, who has been using his considerable wealth to try and accelerate Australia’s transition to a zero emission energy grid. This week this conflict came to a head and ended with AGL’s CEO and Chair of the Board resigning. In today's episode of The Dive, Alec and Darcy discuss what happened with Mike Cannon-Brookes and AGL . And explain what this story means for the future of Australia’s electricity grid?
