As previously predicted in prior posts of mine, the secondary effects of the proposed 3 x 45% Electricity Increase Hikes will be catastrophic.

One must remember that, like petrol, electricity costs affects every business most of whom will not be able to absorb these HUGE cost increases. Those that do not go bust will raise their prices substantially.

It is sad as this will most likely result in small business closures and if one looks at the food prices being led by the big retailers it paints a bleak picture.

Homeowners and individuals can protect themselves against these increases by going green, going efficient.

2 Simple Ways: Energy Saving Showers and LED Lighting. Both options are easily installed by the homeowners, requiring no specialist installers.

 

 Solar Water Heating: Water heating is the single biggest electricity cost in your home. You can reduce your total bills by 30% by using the Sun to heat your water!
