The Power Spot provides a simple way to visualise how much of our energy is coming from renewable sources,
how much renewable energy we are storing in the grid and using later, also,
how much energy we are sharing with our neighbours, and how much energy is coming from non renewable sources.
With onsite renewable energy generation and the ability to purchase accredited green energy, we all have the power to take control of our energy bills.
It allows us to see our community, state and national contribution and progress towards our goals.
The power spot inspires individuals to be part of the solution - the future is bright.
We used combined government data with individual monitoring & smart meter data, e.g. solaredge, wattwatchers, Ausgrid Average Electricity usage, Hobarts Electricity use by TasNetworks, Energex Data to Share, AEMO Electricity Data Model Report, and other data sources:
