“We need to be deploying about 3GW of rooftop solar PV and between 6-7GW of utility-scale renewable energy a year,” Kane Thornton, chief executive of Australia’s Clean Energy Council, tells PV Tech in the last edition of the PV Talk series.

The Clean Energy Council is a well-known trade association in Australia and also plays a role in the country’s regulatory environment for solar PV products. It influences key policies and legislation to help spearhead the renewable energy revolution in one of the world’s sunniest countries.
