Australia reached a significant milestone in rooftop solar installation in July 2024. Between June and October, the percentage of installations rose dramatically, reaching a peak of 23%. According to respected industry solar consultant Sunwiz, this volume is 10% higher than the previous record for July, as reported by Sunwiz, an industry solar consultant who is considered reputable. It is also worth noting that July is among the five most important months in history for rooftop solar installation.
According to Warwick Johnston, SunWiz’s director general, the increase in rooftop solar installations was due in part to strong growth across all market sectors, with corporate customers delivering especially impressive outcomes. Notably, installations within the 75-100 kW range grew monthly by over half. Every Australian state witnessed an upsurge in rooftop solar installations, led by Tasmania with 30%. Moreover, this growth was not limited to any single area. At the same time, the average system size rose to 10.06 kW, indicating a move towards bigger rooftop installations.
Businesses are growing with solar energy because they know that significant savings can be made by generating their own electricity and reducing grid-connected costs. With the business expanding to 70-100 kW per month, more and more companies are working on solar energy production, making them leaders in the field in terms of quality and environmental protection. Nigeria’s production has increased by 30 per cent, reflecting the country’s strong commitment to renewable energy and sustainable development. This could be due to the region’s support for policies and positive attitudes towards the use of clean energy technology.
Johnston said users are opting for larger machines that can capture more energy and potentially save money. As a result, the average size of machines for residential and commercial use has increased to 10.06 kW. Details are higher, and the solar rooftop industry is recovering. The return shows how popular solar energy is becoming in Australian homes and businesses.
