Off-grid energy viable for Australia

摘要

A new report exploring the improving economics of solar and battery technology suggests by 2020, it could be cost-effective for greenfield housing estates and regional towns to employ stand-alone power systems instead of relying on the larger electricity grid. What happens when we un-plug - which explores the consumer and market implications of viable, off-grid energy supply - was prepared by the Alternative Technology Association and Energy for the People, an organisation focused on developing clean-energy projects for community and residential premises.
