The Issue

  • As was established yesterday, many Australians are hesitant to upgrade to solar power, despite the fact that it is cheaper and more sustainable than being on the grid.
  • This is partially due to the fact that it can take upwards of five years to see returns on personal solar energy.
  • Many seem to think it safer or more beneficial to back short term investments
