Sweet free free sunshine down here.

  Right. Australia is crazy sunny. You might intuitively expect there'd be more PV power closer to the equator but that's not how it works, Australia just doesn't have as much cloud as almost anywhere on Earth, especially places a bunch of people actually live - and so that's a lot more energy ("insolation") from the sun ready to harvest.

    Yeah, also we have a lot of room we don’t care about and nobody goes there, so we just put solar panels out there.
