The Smart Energy Council reports that Solar PV records are tumbling with nearly three times the number of solar panel installations in 2018 compared with 2017.
There was over 40 per cent growth in the residential and commercial sectors. NSW was the largest market for residential solar PV in 2018 with 326 MW installed and the state took top spot for commercial systems.
