The Save Solar Campaign in Brief: WA Senate Election

The Newman Governments led the most devastating attack on solar we have seen. In response, the Australian Solar Council waged an extensive campaign throughout the Queensland election encouraging votes to “Vote to save money, vote to save solar” They voted…and they won!
