Solar Buzz
The most buzz-worthy solar industry news from the past week.
- The proportion of solar customers in the National Energy Market (NEM) was fewer than 0.2 per cent in 2007-08. But after only 10 years -- decade of toxic political debate around climate change, carbon pricing and energy policy -- it's 12 per cent and rising. The politics of fear have fuelled the DIY power boom.
- A renewable energy infrastructure that is both functional and beautiful! An Italian architect creates the concept design of the 'Sun Ray', a massive solar collector that could generate enough energy to power 220 Melbourne homes.
- Samoa has just become the first country in the Pacific to install battery energy storage systems and micro grid controller.
Here's some weird news...
- An Adelaide driver has been cautioned and fined for modifying his 4WD with a solar panel and a gas cylinder.
