Australian Party Proposes State-Owned Retail Supplier
February 19,2019
The NSW Greens have announced a plan for a publicly-owned 100% renewable energy supplier and retailer, PowerNSW, and the creation of regional renewable energy hubs across the state to tackle, among other things, electricity prices.
"PowerNSW will fundamentally change the NSW electricity market by building, distributing and retailing affordable and publicly owned renewable energy across NSW," David Shoebridge MP and lead Greens NSW candidate said.
"PowerNSW will be a gamechanger in the retail energy market. With a growing pool of publicly owned renewable energy assets, it will provide the lowest cost and cleanest renewable energy that is 100% reliable, 100% renewable and 100% affordable," the NSW Greens said
