Other than our food bill, the largest bill we have to find money for is BP&L - which continues to hurt, as the rates do not seem to wish to come down.

The letter from a Abraham Moss - Has the cost of Sun gone up? Certainly said it all - sun - solar the generating of electricity using sub-power, is the sole method that the over the hill area - the majority could ever see a substantial reduction in their BP&L bills.

Clearly Prime Minister Minnis, has his heart in over the hill. So it should be easy for him to appreciate, for the majority of our Nassau residents, to see a reduction every month of their bills. Sun power is the way to go.

Sun has no fuel surcharge, which adds so much to your bill…average at least anything from a low of say $50.00 upwards on a bill, mid usage of say $120.00 per month. Fuel costs you $85.00-$90.00 alone –at least a bag or two of groceries! A lot if you come from Grants Town or over the hill!

BP&L seem to be fighting against solar in Nassau, when it is the only power source, that will benefit the over the hill residents the most. Solar I suspect could be operating in months, rather then 24-26 months at the earliest. Sun power Prime Minister…The way to go!
