New research from APVI members at @UNSW - with the support of @arenagovau - shows benefits from diverting excess solar to hot water heating. Read the full article in the @ConversationEDU here 👉 theconversation.com/if-our-h… #solar #hotwater #energy #emissions

If our hot water heaters ran off daytime solar, we would slash emissions and soak up cheap energy

Your electric water heater uses a lot of electricity overnight. Shifting it to soak up solar could be a win-win.
