The Solar PV Industry has teamed up with community groups to organise a number or rallies around NSW next week to show the new O'Farrell Liberal Government the extend of community anger of their disastrous decision to kill off the NSW Solar Industry.
As most people are now aware, the State Government is proposing to introduce retrospective legislation to reduce the legislated 60c/kWh Feed In Tariff for existing solar customers. This is a massive breach of trust with the people of NSW, not just those with Solar. Retrospective legislation in this case would undermine the legitimacy of every decision the Government makes with people asking the obvious question?
Can they be trusted?
If that we not enough to warrant coming out in support of the solar industry and renewable energy more generally, the solar industry now faces an uncertain future. In fact more than 5000 people currently emplyed in the industry are at real risk of losing their jobs.
