Feature Story
π₯ MARKET EXPLOSION: 1 IN 3 HOMES NOW SOLAR (BUT THAT'S NOT THE REAL STORY)

Australiaβs rooftop solar output jumped 20% over summer, now delivering 16% of the nationβs electricity mix (10,592GWh), per the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water.
Regional highlights:
NSW: +25.4%
VIC: +23.1%
SA: +22.5%
QLD: +18%
TAS: +8.9%
WA (SWIS): +6.2%
While everyone's talking about the 20% surge in rooftop solar this summer, smart installers are focusing on what's NOT being reported:
The REAL opportunity is the 66% of homes still without solar
β These holdouts aren't the early adopters - they need stronger sales tactics
β They're more price-sensitive and comparison-shop aggressively
β They require 3X more touchpoints before conversion
INSIDER ALERT: Energy Minister Bowen just signaled potential rebate restructuring: "Australia's solar is the envy of the world β but we need to ensure benefits reach all communities."
Translation: The easy installations are gone. The next wave requires sophisticated targeting and sales approach.
YOUR ACTION PLAN: Below I've shared the exact qualification workflow that's helping our partner installers identify and convert these high-value holdout customers.
