Modern electric appliance are very efficient. The average Australian household with all electric appliances, solar and one EV can save over $4000 per year compared to a gas and petrol powered household. #HeatPumps #SolarPV #SaveOnEnergyBills
Clean energy has multiple benefits, not just driving down wholesale costs and emissions, but improving infrastructure and adding jobs.

Nuclear would increase our emissions by 2 billion tons - a massive amount, the same as 200 years worth of domestic emissions.. Check out this ABC article on the Climate Change Authorities findings www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

Did you know that nuclear power will switch off solar in 4 million Australian homes? Power bills for solar homes will go up more than $1,100, and an average of $665 a year for non-solar homes. Help me spread the word - Solar Saves, Nuclear Costs. www.doubleunderdutton.com.au
Your power bill will double under Dutton
Got Solar? your power bills will double under Dutton. Get the facts - solar saves, nuclear costs.

Floating #solar PV has huge potential, saves water!
“installing FPV on 10% of the area of 249,717 inland reservoirs, FPV capacity could reach up to 22 TW and could fulfill the whole global electricity consumption and up to 5% of the world’s water demand.”

Around 10% of the world’s inland reservoirs could host 22 TW of floating PV
An international research team has assessed the worldwide status and potential of inland floating photovoltaic (FPV) installations, including analysis of the use of trackers and bifacial solar panels.

Solar households can be grid heroes: NSW battery subsidies

"Discounts for battery installations range from $770 to $1,150 for a new 6.5 kWh battery, or $1,600 and $2,400 for a new 13.5 kWh battery, and for VPP connection, between $250 and $400" #auspol

Heat pumps can pull heat in or take it out in summer!
"Heat pumps are sometimes described as a “reverse fridge”, as they use a mixture of evaporation and condensation to transfer heat from outside a building to the inside – even in cold weather."

Heat pumps offer vast energy efficiency gains.

They are 4x more efficient than gas boilers.

No Australian should be left behind: HECs style electrification finance would save on energy cost & emissions "if Australian houses and cars were electrified and powered by renewable energy, we would eliminate 25% of our nation’s carbon emissions." #auspol www.rewiringaustralia.org/blog/electri...
HECs style finance for electrification: "flexible, low-cost loans to all Australian residences to install solar panels, batteries, efficient electric appliances, and an EV, which could save households up to $5000 annually on energy and petrol bills." www.rewiringaustralia.org/blog/electri... #auspol

IEEFA has calculated the LNP's nuclear plans would add $600 to household energy bills.
However if you have solar you are likely to have your rooftop PV regularly turned off. Your energy bills would more than double from $1000 on average to well over $2000/year. smartenergy.org.au/solarstopper...
