CANBERRA: Average solar system sizes in Australia have hit 5kW for the first time on the back of increasing commercial system uptake, according to solar consultancy Sunwiz
According to the firm, Australia reached the mark last month, with the growing proportion of commercial PV in the overall solar mix driving the increase rather than increases in residential systems.
“While WA is sitting steadily below the national average, VIC, QLD and NSW are all hovering around a 5kW average. In June, it’s SA and (ACT, NT, TAS) we have to thank for the jump in average system size each with a state average of around 6kW,” Sunwiz said. Australia hit the 4kW average mark in 2013, the firm said.
