Solar Insiders Podcast: Battery boom-time in the land of the diesel-free donga

Nic Stone talks to Solar Insiders about the myriad innovative off-grid projects that are using PowerPlus Energy’s Australian made – and made for Australia – batteries, including tons of renewable powered dongas.

Plus: We discuss the news of the week, including approval for the world’s biggest solar farm, the cancellation of smaller solar projects, and the release of the new Tesla Powerwall 3.
