The NSW electricity market followed other states this week announcing electricity prices will increase by 30% by Christmas and warning that this increase reflects an ongoing necessary trend for years to come. You can help your residents and the environment by guiding them to apply for the Federal government solar panel rebate which will reduce their current cost of electricity by 40% to 80%.
