A: It’s true that 2515 has a lot of shade. Overall it means we have about 20% less solar than average NSW suburbs, yet it’s believed that the economics of the program still stack up. It's likely that we could power about half of the postcode by sharing power generated from the rooftops of small business, commercial buildings and private homes.
Running a pilot in an area that is not perfect for solar helps us understand what some of the issues might be and then include these learnings in the planning of future electrified communities.

We're currently asking businesses, sports clubs, churches and community organisations to complete a short survey to register their interest in participating in the potential pilot program
