It’s the 30% supply charge increase that made me mad. That’s not tied to the wholesale cost. Thankfully I have solar panels so my bill is already quite low. But I still need grid access. Paying 30% extra now for that “luxury”.

Yeah every year I have to shop around for lowest connection cost. It goes up year on year. And it's definitely because of people with solar panels. A way to make them pay regardless of use.
