This one is absolutely shitting me up the wall because it's transparent as fuck.

They've had years to lobby for home battery rebates and uptake and neighbourhod battery schemes and build a network, instead they've fought them every step of the way and price gouged. So now they're staring down the barrel of significant national uptake of people generating, using and storing their own power off-grid...they want to play vampire.
