Solar fields a focus of new documentary

Our solar fields always have lots of light, a few monitoring cameras and plenty of action – but a documentary crew visiting our research site recently brought a completely different kind of lights-camera-action to the fray.

Entrepreneur Dick Smith stopped by as part of a documentary he’s making on Australia’s energy future. While he was here he had a chance to chat to experts about the future of solar energy and test drive our new electric vehicle.
