Solar panels

Averaged over a year, the most electricity that 1 kW of solar panels can generate in Australia is between 3.5 kWh and 5 kWh per day, depending on how sunny the location is, the slope of the panels, which direction they are facing, and other factors.

Solar power in Australia

Australia leads the world in residential uptake of solar, with a nation-wide average of free-standing households with a PV system at over 20%. [11] By early 2020, Australia had 10.7 GW of rooftop solar in 2.4 million systems. [ 13 ]
