Power bills have become a growing source of stress for Aussie families and businesses. More renewable energy offers a clear solution. Unlike fossil fuels, they rely on a free and abundant source of energy, and are not subject to global price shocks.

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.

    Renewables do decrease prices though? Maybe l2add?

    If you’d heard it was 40% why did you say it was only 6-8% in your previous comment?

    Because that’s literally what the referenced article states? Maybe l2read?

      As the percentage of renewables increases, power bills increase, not decrease. Have you not been paying attention? How can anyone say with a straight face that they decrease prices when power prices have literally done nothing but go up every single quarter since the “renewables” push started?

      So even though you know that the 6-8% figure is bullshit, having heard 40% yourself, you still chose to cite it to try and pretend that “renewables” aren’t causing power bills to increase? Why?
