Labor Premiers are so desperate to save energy that they are prepared strong arm consumers to turn off air conditioning, dishwashers and appliances with TV’s set to also come into the mix of electrical items that may need to be switched off similar to a third world Country that has limited power supply according to sources in NSW where power supply to the grid became a problem last week.

Consumers are expected to cough up the extra cost of power, due to poor decision making by Labor Federal and State policy makers are now being hit on multiple fronts with solar energy management now an issue.

With hot days forecast Australians are now facing new problems as more than 2000 Essential Energy power workers in NSW began a series of rolling 72-hour work stoppages, risking the operations of power supplies across the state.

Electrical Trades Union NSW and ACT secretary Allen Hicks who is taking advantage of new Labor employment labour policies to push for pay rises, claims that state government had “abandoned” electricity workers, criticising what he said was a solitary phone call from NSW state Energy Minister Penny Sharpe when ­rejecting its demands.

Hicks knows that under a Peter Dutton led Coalition Trade Unions are set to face a tougher time and that the introduction of potential nuclear power management could see jobs at power stations cut.

This week Victoria’s Premier Jacinta Allen who was a prodigy of the disastrous former Premier Dan Andrews, who was known as Comrade Dan because of his links with communist China, is now pushing their energy management failures onto consumer due to black out concerns along with the extra costs associated with the debacle.

NSW Premier Chris Minns has already shifted the lack of power output to the electricity grid due to the shutdown of four power stations in NSW to residents by urging them to avoid using certain household appliances including air conditioners, when it gets above 30 degrees.

Despite the grid performing perfectly when it was powered by coal and gas, the problem now, appears to be the manic obsession to move to alternate energy to meet demand with the once spruiked solar panels, which were supposed to deliver savings on their installation, by being able to sell excess energy back to the grid, now being turned off from the grid.

Four million Australian households are now facing the real threat of ­restrictions on their solar panel performance, in a desperate effort by energy companies stop the power grid being flooded with excess ­electricity.

Labor’s Climate Change and Energy ­Minister Chris Bowen has defended an increasingly decentralised power grid against calls for more “always on power” like ­nuclear.

In the upcoming election Anthony Albanese and Peter Dutton are set to put cost of living and energy bills at the centre their electron spruiking with the real possibility that appliances will have to be turned off because Labor energy policies are simply not working.

Several appliance brands are already looking at new model appliances aimed at delivering more energy efficiency claim retailers.

Power grid operator has warned too much solar generation risks pushing local distribution lines to breaking point. With rooftop solar at its peak supplying up to half the needs of the electricity system, a new “emergency backstop” mechanism will be introduced to tem­porarily solve the problem of too much solar overwhelming the grid.

The energy minister said the solar move was part of the journey to a modern power grid with solar, wind and batteries set to replace coal generation as Australia’s main form of electricity.

The big question is whether Bowen will be in his job long enough to execute on his questionable energy plans.

Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan said whether Victorians were issued a similar turn off request similar to NSW this summer would depend on the weather and advice from AEMO.
