Breach | Enforcement action |
---|---|
Unsafe work practices | A 3-month suspension issued to a Registered Electrical Contractor (REC) for the unsafe installation practices of their lead installer, for which the REC was ultimately responsible. The installer was found to be working at heights without required safety measures in place, as detected by WorkSafe Victoria, and was also suspended from the program for three months. |
Fit and proper program participant | An immediate 3-month suspension issued to an authorised retailer following a permanent suspension imposed by the Clean Energy Regulator (CER). The CER deemed that due to the “misleading responses” to the CER’s enquiries, this retailer is no longer a fit and proper entity under the Renewable Energy Electricity Act and therefore cannot create STCs. This matter occurred outside of the Solar Homes Program, and further CER investigation is underway. We act with an abundance of caution and are strictly averse to any activities in and outside the Solar Homes Program that could bring harm to the program and its participants. |
