Trees like Eucs need community, close friends, so their roots grow together and form support for one another. A lone tree is a sad thing to see. We see the same thing in Australia, where trees are left isolated and become a danger in wet and windy weather.

In Australia, industrial electricity users can select their retailer, but of course there is only one network servicing each property.
The only way to avoid these monopoly charges is to generate electricity on the premises ('behind-the-meter') with solar or renewable heat-to-power.

The competitive component of industrial electricity bills in Australia, i.e. the retail component, usually accounts for less than half of the total cost.
The non-competitive components, mainly the monopoly network charges, account for most of the bill.
