Pay solar export users more money for exporting electricity
Rejected

What the petition asks
We want a change to the amount of money received per kwh that solar panel users whom export energy to the national grid receive, bringing it in line with the amount of money received per kwh to what we are charged for per kwh.
In the interest of fairness considering energy companies boast massive energy profits we want to see the export tarrif reviewed to reflect the price we receive for exporting to bring it in line with the price we pay for buying a kwh of energy from the national grid, it is only fair if we, the users and generators of solar electricity export energy to the national grid that we receive the same price as that what we buy it for in the interest of fairness
