22 Aug Everyone connected: It shouldn’t be a privilege to have power
BAF continues to explore ways to ensure communities can access affordable energy. We’re excited to endorse the Everyone Connected research and campaign led by Common Grace Aotearoa.
Everyone Connected has launched a petition calling on the Electricity Authority to do more to protect families struggling with electricity prices. This coalition wants to see an end to disconnection fees, which hit those who can least afford to pay; fairer prices for prepay, which currently costs more despite most users being on low incomes; and enforceable rules for consumer care.
You can sign the petition at tinyurl.com/powerpricesnz, or get involved at everyoneconnectednz.com/contact.
