Power Cuts this summer for Australians

In the Australian summer of 2009/2010, there have been deliberate power cuts to household in the attempt for electricity companies to have money.

What the electricity companies do is cut of power to every second household during the times of peak power usage in order NOT to supply power generation from back up generators.

The mass media is in collusion in with the corporate giants by not making the knowledge public as it happens.

Plans have already been drawn up for Adelaide to be rationed during this coming summer, as well as Melbourne.

The majority of Melbournes power generation is made from coal powered stations in the states east in the Latrobe Valley, 150 km away from Melbourne.

Since the privitisation of the states electricity, there has been no extra supply generation, despite an increase in population to approx 4,000,000 people in 2010, an increase of approx 30% over the past generation (25 years).

Melbourne has seen the shutdown of power stations (e.g. Lonsdale St in 1982), despite the rapid growth of the city, in which is a deliberate attempt to descrease supply for an increase in demand.

Melbourne also has a backup generator in Port Melbourne, which is idling 24/7, yet authorities deliberately ration power to the masses.

Melbourne's households will have their electicity cut, again this summer, with no consequences to the power companies, but will also be charged fraudulently much more than the recommended CPI increase others follow.

Another consumer rip off with the FULL support of the Australian government.
