"We'll keep the lights on": AGL boss Brett Redman on energy grid security during COVID-19 crisis

AGL chief executive Brett Redman tells AM despite the risk of workers going down with COVID-19, he's confident about "keeping the lights on". 

With the national energy grid an essential service, he outlines contingency plans AGL has such as special backup accommodation for isolating any infected staff. 

Mr Redman backs the PM's $130 billion wages subsidy scheme and tells ABC's Peter Ryan it will be critical in keeping the wheels of the economy turning.
