In yesterday's budget, the governments pre-election commitment to fund A Million Solar Roofs appears to have quietly disappeared. It was also announced that the Australian Renewable Energy Association, which provided funding for renewables projects, like big scale and community solar, has been axed.

If the Government wanted to grow solar, create more jobs and ensure families can take real power over their bills, they would have kept these programs - not killed them. Will you chip in so we can continue to grow Solar Citizens to fight back against these continued attacks on solar?
