South Australia's solar feed-in scheme kicks in today.... paying people double the going rate for excess solar power they feed back into the electricity grid. Premier Mike Rann says solar households could earn up to 400 dollars a year. Mr RANN says South Australia has about 40 per cent of Australia's grid connected solar panels..... and five times the number of household installations as the next highest state. The premier has also welcomed today's start of a single national reporting system for energy and greenhouse gas emissions... with companies obliged for the first time to report on their greenhouse gas emissions.
