Solar Power Australia

This is disappointingly low considering the country has a reputation for a hot, dry and sunny climate that you would think would make it ideal for solar energy.

Solar energy needn't cost you a fortune. You can now plug your iphone or mobile phone into the sun with these great little solar battery chargers. For more information click here.

However, the Australian Government has great confidence in the potential of solar power to contribute its clean energy future and is embarking on some ambitious plans by investing in new high-tech facilities that will be amongst the largest in the world.

It's all part of a $3.5 billion climate change strategy of which around $1.4 billion is specifically for renewables such as solar energy.

And with strong, long term incentives to encourage the use of solar and low emissions technologies, the government are expecting a surge of interest in both commercial and residential solar power installations.
