036 - Changes in installation size over the Solar Bonus Scheme

The NSW solar bonus scheme was launched in January 2010, "to encourage the uptake of renewable energy, handed homeowners 60¢ or 20¢ "feed-in" tariffs per kilowatt hour, for the solar energy they put back into the grid".

The NSW government makes data available on their website detailing installations - the chart below shows the amount of capacity installed each month, broken up by the size of the installation. Bigger installations are darker red; smaller ones are lighter.
