Did you know a recent University of NSW study found Australians living in apartments, social housing and private rentals not using rooftop solar are missing out on $9.3 billion per year in potential savings? This equates to a $1300 reduction in annual power bills! With only a third of Australian homes currently enjoying the benefits of rooftop solar power systems (PV), we’ve only just scratched the surface. The time is now to make the switch to solar and start saving on energy costs. If you want your home, investment property, or business to take advantage of solar PV and significantly reduce bills, contact Solahart today!

The recent study from our portfolio company SotySolar, prepared jointly with UNEF Spanish Solar Association, shows a significant upward trend in solar adoption in 🇪🇸 Spain while pointing to some factual and perceived hurdles. Here are the key takeaways from InformeSolar: ☀ Economic savings (60%) and reduced consumption (40%) are the primary drivers for going solar. ☀ The battery boom is gaining momentum, with 27% of current solar panel owners already having integrated battery storage. ☀ While the interest is high (22% considering solar), the high initial investment is a concern for homeowners (25%), and navigating community approvals is a perceived hurdle for flat owners (40%). ☀ Three-quarters of potential customers are unaware of the financial aid and benefits available for solar installations. "People are looking for ways to save money and shrink their environmental footprint. At the same time, the report shows we need to continue education and address the factual and perceived barriers. This will help accelerate the transition to a clean and sustainable energy future," said Dani Fernández, CEO and co-founder of SotySolar.

With 1 week left to participate in the Solar ScaleUp Challenge, I wanted to imagine what your current project could look like if you were successful. Here's what I imagine it looks like (and what we've already seen): For the purpose of the exercise, let's assume you are developing new technology to make ultra-low-cost solar easier to scale. (FYI you can also join the Challenge if you own, build or operate solar farms, manufacture equipment, finance solar projects and others) 1️⃣ Your current state Your current technology is going well, it's either a late-stage prototype with positive signs, a pilot project, or could even be ready to demonstrate on a larger scale. BUT you need solar projects or equipment manufacturers to demonstrate the technology on, and support to understand the gaps in your current system. What's holding you back from gaining massive traction? 2️⃣ What happens when you submit? You submit your solution to the Challenge and immediately put yourself in front of a range of innovators, OEMs, developing solar projects, financiers, and more (not to mention, you enter the running for a slice of $100m grant funding). 3️⃣ You're successful in your submission You've gone through an accelerated pre-application process and have had several feedback points from industry experts to become part of a hand-picked group that can showcase your solution to Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA). If this sounds like a good deal to you, then it's time to kick into high gear. The submissions for this Challenge close in 1 week and our Greenhouse team are firing on all cylinders to the finish line.

Find out how both commercial renters and landlords can benefit from Solar PV. Does your business have high energy costs but you are renting a commercial property? Or are you a landlord with existing tenants looking to make your site more sustainable? Having tenants or being a tenant doesn’t mean that you both can’t benefit from installing a Solar PV system. Many tenants and landlords believe the installation of solar panels while the property is rented/occupied is too complex or unfeasible. However, with energy prices high and continuing uncertainty in the global energy market, producing renewable energy on commercial buildings has become increasingly attractive. Projects are now common on leased properties with agreements between tenants and landlords simplified and standardised, therefore tenants and landlords should not be put off.  Find out why investing in a Solar PV system makes commercial sense: https://lnkd.in/eM_Yc8Yd If you would like any advice, our team of experts are here to help.
