Solar power

With around 4 million solar rooftop systems, Australian regulators say there is now an issue of too much power generation.

Australia’s Climate Change and Energy Minister Chris Bowen says the nation is on track for a near-record when it comes to solar power generation.

Australia should take advantage of the thousands of square kilometres of uninhabited outback to build the world’s largest solar farm, Dino Otranto says.

This massive solar farm will send power through a 4,300-kilometre cable under the sea and be visible from space.

Wind power is more expensive than first thought, but renewables remain the lowest cost to build, the CSIRO’s latest GenCost report says.

‘It’s a snapshot of the economic and energy transformation underway in Australia, particularly in regional Australia.’

‘Those pressures on household budgets are still very present and solar panels remain a great way of reducing electricity bills.’

Some California buildings, schools, and farms that utilize solar power would be forced to sell energy to utility companies at discounted rates and repurchase the power at retail prices, under a recent proposal.

Living large is no longer an option for many home buyers seeking to downsize into an “off-grid” community or “tiny house.” But mobility is the key.
