 Why is everyone buying Fox batteries? This week on Just Another Solar Podcast, we’re joined by Brooks from Fox ESS to get behind the rapid rise of one of Australia’s biggest battery brands. We unpack how Fox keeps its prices so competitive, the truth behind the cold-weather debate, battery warranties and throughput, installation quality and compliance, and the company’s push into commercial and industrial energy storage. Plus, we discuss the changing Australian solar market, the battery boom, EV charging and what’s coming next for the industry.

The team is back for a big catch-up on what’s happening across Australia’s solar and energy industry. We dive into the controversy surrounding an electrical inspector who certified battery installations without inspecting them, the most common solar and battery defects, and what this means for industry compliance. We also unpack Australia’s 500,000+ home battery milestone, how batteries are reshaping the electricity market, whether battery arbitrage is disappearing, EVs and charging, heat pumps, and the growing public support for renewables.

This week on Just Another Solar Podcast, Nigel, Carl, Logan and Michael dive into the changing face of Australia’s solar industry — from the expansion of the SRES program to 1MW and the rise of utility-scale projects, to the increasingly important world of solar piling. Logan and Michael share the story of their four-generation electrical and solar business, why they walked away from residential and commercial solar, and how they built a specialist operation around GPS-controlled piling, mechanical construction and large-scale solar projects. Plus, the latest energy market numbers, batteries, heat pumps, the industry’s alleged bribery scandal, and a look at where Australia’s massive solar pipeline is heading next.
