Last week, a two-phased research confirmed that Australians should start embracing themselves for another looming rooftop solar boom that has been triggered by the rapidly growing economics of solar PV panels and storage, and the state of retail electricity prices that keep worsening.
In May this year, one industry report showed Australian solar investments hit a record high in 2016.
The 2016 report which was produced by the Clean Energy Regulator, highlighted in great detail Australia’s progress–obviously geared towards the realization of its 2020 renewable energy target.
A solar farm at a Newcastle waste management centre will soon provide a tenfold clean energy boost. The 5MW solar farm at Summerhill Waste Management Centre will cover an area of around five football fields.
Euro Solar—one of the largest solar panel retailers in Australia has been compelled by the Clean Energy Regulator to replace modules or relinquish small-scale technology certificates (STCs) after supposedly installing solar panels that were non-compliance.
