If you stop to think about it, it’s a marvel that we can harness energy from the sun. But we do, thanks to solar panels equipped with photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight to electricity. That’s no ...

NSW homes built in 2026 are designed to use less energy first. That’s why solar panels and batteries now work better than they did in older, leakier homes.

Less sun doesn't mean no sun.
