Solar Power Surges in Australia
2020-21 Brings Record Generation
Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems generated approximately 10% of Australia's electricity in 2020-21, a significant milestone in the country's transition to renewable energy sources. This impressive growth has been driven by a surge in large-scale solar farms and increasing adoption of rooftop solar panels by households and businesses.
Limondale Solar Farm Powers Up
Among the notable additions to Australia's solar landscape is the Limondale Solar Farm in New South Wales, which became operational in the first quarter of 2021. This massive project has the capacity to generate enough electricity to power approximately 60,000 homes, further boosting the nation's solar output.
