You know who gets screwed by this, the average joe blow, the rich don't give a ****e,the rich all had the spare capital to invest in solar buying 5kw systems when 10 year rebates were high and are reaping the rewards, receiving nice excess rebates cheques that pay off their systems in under 5 years.
Here in WA we still have a State owned energy producer yet prices have doubled since Barnett was elected and are still rising, to top it off his Govt scraped the renewable energy buy back scheme rebates.
Now we have a situation where Western Power is the wholesaler, Synergy is the retailer, They buy electricity from WP at a 7c KWH wholesale rate then sell it back to the consumer at 20c kwh
Anyone who now buys a PV System now will receive the wholesale rate as a rebate. So energy you produce will cost you 13 kwh and they class this a fair and reasonable.
Bullocks the Liberal Govt in this state can kiss my butt
