Finland isnβt doing too badly either. Their energy costs went below zero due to so much renewable.
β¦Damn it. I missed the opportunity to apply for the $250 energy rebate. I set a reminder but put it for August not June. /facepalm
Edit: or did I? It said 2023-2024 so was there another one or did it just close this late? Iβm going to set a reminder for May or June next year to remind myself to check
I don't think there is another State Govt. rebate like the last ones, but there should be a Federal rebate issued through your power bills - $300, split into four $75 dollar rebates applied quarterly to your power bill.

Oh good, that looks like it should be automatic. Thanks. Iβve been having trouble staying on top of stuff like this but it adds up
