Tarneit electorate
Ms CONNOLLY (Tarneit) (14:50): (6245) My question is for the Minister for Energy, Environment and Climate Change and Minister for Solar Homes. Since 2018 our government’s Solar Homes program has been absolutely life changing for so many households in Victoria who want to benefit from lower power bills. We know that by helping install solar panels Victorians can save thousands of dollars off their home energy bills each and every single year. Now, the idea that our outer suburbs do not care about investments in renewable energy is simply untrue. Because if you want to see what renewable energy power means for outer suburbs, you can look at my community in Tarneit, which pretty consistently tops the list of suburbs for uptake of this wonderful program. From the very beginning our postcodes were among the highest in the state, and thousands of homes in Tarneit, Truganina, Hoppers Crossing and Williams Landing have since benefited from having solar panels installed on their roofs with the help of this program. My question for the minister is this: how many households in Tarneit have taken part in the Solar Homes program since its beginning?
