Nowadays, one in five homes has solar power – a significant boost from 5 per cent of the population back in 2011.

South Australia led the charge, with 24 per cent of households in the state adopting solar power. New South Wales saw 10 per cent of household's embracing a cleaner, greener home – a figure that could always go up.
