WESTERN POWER - “COOL COMMUNITY - CLEAN FUTURE” SCHEME 1194. Hon RAY HALLIGAN to the Leader of the House representing the Minister for Energy: I refer to a letter sent to consumers by Western Power dated 17 September 2007 and headed “Cool Community - Clean Future”. (1) Did Western Power follow up any consumers? (2) If so, how? (3) How many consumers are now participating in the scheme? Hon KIM CHANCE
AnswerView source ↗
I thank Hon Ray Halligan for providing some notice of the question. (1) Yes. (2) Western Power sent a subsequent letter on 24 October to all residents whose power is supplied from the Nedlands substation. This incorporates 5 600 addresses and includes areas within Nedlands, Claremont and Dalkeith. (3) As of Monday, 19 November 2007, 995 residents had either telephoned, emailed or written to Western Power expressing interest in the trial. When the honourable member receives the written copy of this answer, it actually says “trail” but I am sure that it means “trial”. Of these, 774 residents have registered to participate. Anecdotal evidence from trials in the eastern states suggests that this is a very good response rate.
