INNOVATION THROUGH DEMONSTRATIONJanuary 2017 total reported capacity in Australia
reaches over 5.7 gigawatts
Period from April 2001 – December 2016 saw increase of 5,701,521 kW
December 2015 – December 2016: increase of 15.5% in total reported capacity

Our Strata Utility Governance model, once released as open source, could unlock an additional 20-25% of the Australian housing stock to the benefits of solar/storage

20% of Australian households have solar PV
Up to 45% of Australian ResidencesCould have solar PV
Australian capital cities are setting targets to densify the urban space We can expect more growth in the sector in the future
@msjemmagreen
Will review each remaining Australian capital city for the quantum opportunity
