Did you know that Israel public parks are fitted with synthetic solar trees? These solar trees are not only to provide shade from the sun but they are engineered to act as charging stations for cell phones, tablets and other mobile gadgets. This new development is the creation of an Israeli inventor, Michael Lasry, CEO of the company responsible for the solar tree development.

I took an interest in the Australian energy sector close to ten years ago and since then have monitored the trends, technologies and direction of the Australian Energy Market. I was drawn to the Australian solar market in 2008 and since then have worked heavily in the field. I am partnered with national and international solar energy companies, from manufacturers of solar panel and inverter technology, online software developers that introduce tools to quote, monitor and manage solar power systems and media organisations who like myself, closely monitor the solar and renewable energy sector.
