The dual benefits of Western Australia’s solar redistribution scheme

The dual benefits of Western Australia’s solar redistribution scheme The state government gives qualifying low-income households free electricity between 9am and 3pm each day – essentially by redistributing excess solar from the roofs of wealthier homes.

        This solar redistribution scheme provides free electricity to low-income households during peak solar hours, benefiting both disadvantaged communities and optimizing the use of excess solar energy from wealthier homes. Way to go IMO

            Maximizing the use of the energy produced by the rich through distributing it to the poor reduces wastage. This is a great strategy by Western Australia.

                Western Australia’s solar redistribution scheme not only enhances economic efficiency by optimizing energy use and reducing costs but also supports environmental sustainability by maximizing the use of renewable energy sources.
