Power bills have become a growing source of stress for Aussie families and businesses. Many families are forced to make impossible choices: three in 10 parents are struggling to afford basics like food, electricity and insurance. Government rebates provided some relief, but this was only a band-aid solution.
Yeah that’s it for me. I built new and moved in 9ish months ago. The covenant on the land required a battery and solar as standard. Since moving in, I’ve used grid power on maybe 3 separate days. Because of government handouts my electricity account was several hundred dollars in credit when I moved in, and I haven’t paid a cent from my actual bank account as a result. But the credit is slowly draining, entirely as a result of the connection fee.
