Solar Power Australia



solar power australia, solar panels, solar energy, solar power



Solar power in Australia, provides less than one percent of electricity needs.

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 panels.





However, the Australian Government has great confidence in the potential of solar panels 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 panels and low emissions technologies, the government are expecting a surge of interest in both commercial and residential solar power installations.
