what about the economics of all this , if the power line only serves 1 property then powercor get $250 p.a to supply ,maintain and read the meters. so I would suggest it actually cost a lot more than they receive in return . For $20,000 a stand alone solar ,battery backup generator would be a cheaper option all up and remove power wires from a highly flammable area surely it is time for some rationalisation or would that be too sensible
