AURORA PROFITS

-

SO Aurora made a $20.9m profit and paid a $6.3m dividend to the government. I wonder how much of that profit and dividend came from solar-produced electricit­y that Aurora paid 6c/kWh for and sold for 24c/kWh to customers, without having to lift a finger.

Maybe it turned loss into profit by reducing the feed-in tariff from a previous 26/kWh to 6/kWh and

charging customers 11c a day for using their off-peak/peak monitoring app on mobile phones.
