Fibre optics unlocking solar affordability
A category winner in the AFR Energy Awards in 2025, Venergy Solar Australia is once again earning plaudits for its innovative work. The Adelaide-based business hopes to build on its success by driving solar power uptake in the commercial sector.
Venergy was successful in the Energy Awards’ sustainability category last year, cited for its efforts in repurposing and donating solar panels that it was upgrading for clients.
This time around, the company has been recognised among the AFR’s Sustainability Leaders in the utilities category for its work in providing affordable residential rooftop solar.
Fresh from the success of its Stockland project Venergy Solar is well-prepared for a surge in commercial interest.
“Especially given that this one is for our Stockland project, it’s very exciting, but I think it’s just a great recognition of our team and the solution that we came up with for this project,” says Venergy CEO Matthew Wilkins.
“It is, I think, great recognition of where the business is today. It’s been a long journey, and we’ve been on this path for a while.”
