Hi everyone,
SolarQuotes TV episode 3 is now live! In this episode, the fire hazard that could soon be a thing of the past, karate vs. crystalline in the ultimate solar panel punishment test, why home batteries are still so expensive, when solar installations go
bad and much more! Check it out here:
In other news, the potential for solar export charges to be introduced in
Australia has really stirred things up. Here's
my take on the situation.
Speaking of attracting attention, Ronald's April 1 article on Tesla's "satellite sunlight" bonus for
early adopters of Tesla Solar Roof in Australia generated a lot of it - and even initially caught out a few of the Tesla team.
Now to a real bonus - Delta Electronics has revealed the H8E/H10E inverters' "secret feature" to SolarQuotes. And while on the topic
of new hardware, there should be more choice of high power residential panels in the not too distant future, with both JinkoSolar
and JA Solar recently announcing 415W modules..
More news below!
Don't forget you can get 3 solar quotes from trusted solar installers at our website - and everyone can also stay in touch with what's happening on SQ via our Facebook page.
