Inside the engineering megaproject that went horribly wrong | Four Corners

Australia’s Snowy 2.0 was sold as a nation-building megaproject for a low-carbon future – and was meant to be feeding power into the grid by the end of 2024. Instead, the pumped hydro project, which was once estimated to cost $2 billion, is four years behind schedule and now forecast to hit $12 billion. In this documentary, Four Corners reveals the inside story of Snowy 2.0 and how it all went so horribly wrong.
