Going Green

 

Just had 6 solar panels put on the roof. Readers outside of QLD weep total
cost $380.00
As we have to wait for Ergon to put in a new outgoing meter, atm our main
meter is running backwards for part of the day. The reason it is so cheap is
The Blight arranged a Qld special with a Gold Coast company. The rest is
made up by the feds. Who unfortunately have reduced their subsidy to $7500
from $8000, Copenhagen be damned eh????? Now that I have felt superiour for
a little while I guess it is back to watering (rain water) the vegies.

the solar component the govcos are patting themselves on the back stupid over
is going to amount to nothing the way everyone is buying a plasma / whatever
big screen TV and whatever other Chinese appliantology (RIP F.Z.) to fill the
living room.  Yearly power consumption per capita has soared.
The new residentials that need the power the solar is meant to save now have
less than before and the taxpayers (us good guys) have to pay the bill for
solar initiatives and desal then new power stations as required in the
future.

That's a great price for your solar all the same.

Would not Glenfiddick be more suitable? I have a small (if 32" is small)
plasma and the meter was going backwards with it running the other day.

 

Glenfiddich is OK - nothing less than a single malt please!

Re going Green.
Do what you can and "can" what you cant.
One thing is for certain, if you dont make ends meet now that prices are
reasonable, you will certainly wont be able to afford any sort of energy
when its expected everyone has green power facilities.
As the rental market is so large, it should be insisted that all rental
properties owners must make provisions for installations.
And I know what people are thinking....
But it will sertainly allow rentals to go up if power is cheaper and saves
tenants money on power....
