Yes true, but this scheme offers free solar equipment and installation and claims to provide cheap interest on this equipment so that overall the expenses for power work out cheaper than a normal power bill? Or so I understand? That’s why I’m asking.

If true, sounds like a simple way for normal Aussies to go solar, for free, plus with cheaper power bills? Maybe I’m wrong, but could be good way to reduce traditional Australian power generation? This is a startup without heaps of money, so the offers for new customers would need to be limited. They are talking of just 600 ppl for now?

Whatever. We have probably just about reached saturation point for new solar sign-ups soon. Now, we might need such schemes to solar-convert the rest of Australia?

Maybe as good a solar scheme as currently possible? They sound altruistic must say.
