Campbell Newman’s latest attack on Solar

This is outrageous. Over the weekend Premier Campbell Newman has taken aim at solar, blaming Queenslanders who choose to go solar for power price rises and therefore the need to sell off the state’s poles and wires*. It’s simply not true. The major component of the average Queensland power bill is network charges**, those poles and wires which have seen dramatic levels of over-investment and pushed up power prices so much so that the Federal Senate is holding an inquiry into this so-called “gold-plating” of the grid***. Tell Premier Newman to stop his wild campaign against Queensland solar homes write a post to the Premier on his Facebook page. Solar citizens meet in Ashgrove to combat Newman Govt attack against them More than a hundred people gathered in the Queensland Premier´s electorate vowing to fight what they claim is a campaign against owners of solar panels.
