Rally for Renewable Energy, Jobs and Regional Communities

Don't Let Baillieu Pull the Plug on Renewable Energy Save Wind and Solar Rally for Renewable Energy, Jobs and Regional Communities

12.30pm Thursday 29 September
Parliament House Steps, Melbourne
Bring a placard or banner, bring your friends!

In one black week for renewable energy, the state government recently brought in planning laws that will restrict wind farms from any new developments in the state, and then slashed the solar feed-in tariff.


Less than a month later, it is clear this is having a negative effect on the development of clean, renewable energy. Wind developers and solar companies are closing down or leaving the state. Come along to tell Ted Baillieu that this is the wrong way and that we want support for renewable energy in Victoria, exactly one month after the new wind laws were introduced.

There will be protests in other centres at the same time, including Bendigo, Ballarat and Geelong. Contact Ben Courtice on 0413 580 706 below for details.
