Bastardry.

If the #rooftop #solar owners can beat the privatised generators and networks out of their exorbitant kWh usage and the absolute scam 'demand' charges by generating their own power, they'll jack the hell out of the monthly access fees and assorted other bullshit.

And AEMO are going to let them get away with it because the billionaires who bought the grid own the political parties and thus the regulator. https://reneweconomy.com.au/plan-to-increase-fixed-network-costs-will-take-from-the-poor-give-to-the-rich-and-slash-returns-on-pv-and-batteries/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=plan-to-increase-fixed-network-costs-will-take-from-the-poor-give-to-the-rich-and-slash-returns-on-pv-and-batteries
