Letter to the Editor: Electricity cost concerns

DEAR News Of The Area,

I AM wondering if anyone else is in the same boat as we are in.

My last electricity bill has risen by three cents a kilowatt (KW) and the daily charge has gone up by 80 cents per day, plus the solar has reduced by one cent to four cents.

We are on a fixed pension, and we can’t offset the increases.

With other costs rising it is becoming a bit of a struggle.

I believe we are in for more increases in electricity costs, so what are our paid representatives doing to assist?

Regards,
Barry DOWSE,
