Planning your rooftop solar and battery installation: Where to start?
Returning after CAW 2025 as our Seed Grant winners, the SunSPOT team will once again join the NSW Decarb Hub program to showcase how rooftop solar analytics can empower households to take practical, cost-saving climate action.
SunSPOT has become one of Australia’s most accessible and trusted tools for estimating rooftop solar potential and right-sizing batteries. This session brings audiences behind the scenes of the tool and explores its growing impact across households, councils, and community groups.
This session will provide:
An Overview of SunSPOT - what SunSPOT does, how it works, and the rigorous methodology behind its modelling.
Supporting Consumers to Lower Bills and Emissions - practical advice for households and how SunSPOT can support both cost of living and climate goals through confident solar investment decisions.
The Future of SunSPOT and Scaling Community Benefits - highlighting future capabilities and opportunities.
Special Announcement - a Request for Proposal by EESN, opening new pathways for innovation and collaboration.
Hosted by: The NSW Decarb Hub’s Electrification and Energy Systems Network (EESN) in partnership with SunSPOT.
Speakers: Dr Mike Roberts, Ellie Kallmier.
