About 1 in 4 homes in Australia have installed solar as of the end of 2020. Our country receives a massive amount of energy from the sun every year, enough to supply approx. 10,000 times our total energy consumption.
Australia’s potential for solar generation is unparalleled. Our solar industry has seen continuous growth, with thousands of new solar PV and battery installations every year, thanks to the fact we receive much more energy from the sun than we need.
Australia receives energy from the sun that is approximately 10,000 times larger than its total energy consumption. It comes as no surprise that we are number 1 in the world when it comes to solar uptake per capita – as they say, when life gives you lemons, go solar!
As solar storage technology continues to evolve, it becomes more and more accessible for the Australian public.
Solar is the cleanest source of energy, and it helps thousands of households each year move towards a more sustainable future. If you have been enjoying solar panels for a while, there are plenty of reasons why you might be considering an upgrade to your system with more panels or a battery.
Picking the most appropriate solar storage solution becomes paramount. The Australian market has literally hundreds of brands, sizes, and models to choose from, so this decision can seem a bit daunting at first.
Adding a solar battery to your rooftop PV system will enable you to store excess energy generated during the day, so you can use it at night and other times of low generation, helping you import less from the grid (lowering your bills too!). How do solar batteries work? Which technology is the safest to use?
Solar batteries are increasingly popular in Australia, allowing thousands of households to capture any unused solar generated during the day for later use.
Blackouts. Many areas in Australia have small, localised power outages each year, caused by different factors not always in our control. Natural events such as storms, floods, lightning, heatwaves, bushfires, or even fallen trees in the right spot can cause a power disruption.
