Importance of Renewable Energy Target to Australians

What You Can Do About Australia’s Renewable Energy Target, Energy Collective,  February 16, 2014 Anyone who reads the paper knows that the Renewable Energy Target is currently the subject of an inordinate attack. However, when you look at the facts it’s clear that this is completely unwarranted.

The question was put to me “Can you suggest how we in small business can best educate the decision makers about the benefits of the RET? It all seems a bit remote from the man in the street, but the decision will affect us all.”

This statement is right on the money; if you have solar, if work in solar or if you want solar, any change to the RET will affect you. If we add up how many Australians live in homes with solar, work in solar and the general (positive) attitude to solar, it means this decision affects Millions of Australians. I don’t know that our decision makers quite understand this fact. Yet.

Before I get to what to do lets start by understanding what is driving the focus on the RET, by considering it in the broader context of Australia’s most important and current issues………..http://theenergycollective.com/solarbusiness/340196/what-you-can-do-help-save-renewable-energy-target
