Welcome to the Local Power website!
Local Power is a group of people interested in sustainable power generation which is
local and community owned. PV solar based electricity is one way
we can help make this happen. Click here

What's New. |
Grid Parity is getting closer each year.
As the price of grid electricity continues to increase (Queensland -
July 2007 11.37%, July 2008
5.38%, July 2009
15.7%?) and the price of PV solar continues to come down as it has
over the last 20 years, it's expected that more homes and community
buildings will install solar and generate a large percentage of their
daytime electricity onsite. |
Please explore the links on the left of
this page to see some of the things we are working on. If you are

NB leaving your email below is not ordering a PV system.
