It’s no secret that interest in commercial PV is growing amongst both businesses and government organisations. If you’re banking on reducing the upfront cost of a large installation by creating STCs, it pays to do your homework first.

Last Friday something remarkable happened. The spot price for Large-scale Generation Certificates (LGCs) rose above the price for Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) for the first time since March 2013, and to the highest levels seen in more than 3 years. 

The level of solar installations registering Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) in 2014 was 13 per cent above the STC target.

2014 was a turbulent year for energy efficiency. From the major policy shifts in Victoria to significant energy efficiency scheme changes in New South Wales and South Australia
