Therefore, I am asking that you represent the interests of our electorate and champion a Household Energy Upgrade Plan within the NSW Parliament so that our community receives the millions of dollars of energy savings, health and environmental benefits.
I would like for you to advocate on my behalf for a Household Energy Upgrade Plan that:
- Supports the investment in local manufacturing and local procurement of heat pumps
- Prioritises the most disadvantaged communities for an accelerated rollout of community and social housing upgrades to alleviate cost of living pressure
- Sets targets, dates and clear expectations as part of a wider ‘gas substitution roadmap’ for when and how the rollout of energy upgrades will take place
NSW can’t afford to lag behind other States on electrification, but to achieve this in a way that is practical, fair and fully realises economic, health and environmental benefits we need a plan, and quickly!
I urge you to please consider the millions of dollars of energy savings our electorate stands to gain each year through an Energy Upgrade plan and advocate for this important policy on behalf of our community.
