See how each Party stacks up and share the Solar Scorecard with your friends and family
Queensland goes to the polls on November 25 so Solar Citizens has taken a close look at where the major parties stand on Queensland’s renewable energy future and three key policy priorities.
This election, we’re calling on all political parties to move towards 100% clean energy by committing to three key promises:
-
Set a strong renewable energy target
Legislate a renewable energy target to ensure that, by 2030, at least 50% of the electricity generated in Queensland comes from solar, wind and other renewables. -
Build big solar - not new coal power
Renewable energy is now the cheapest, cleanest source of electricity. The next state government should support new large-scale solar and wind farms and rule out an expensive, polluting new coal fired power station. -
Help more Queenslanders go solar
To meet the target of one million solar rooftops by 2020, the next Queensland government must guarantee a fair price for the electricity that solar households feed into the grid and remove the roadblocks for low-income earners, businesses and communities who want to go solar.
