Abstract

In the recent years, because of the growing economy and increasing population, the demand for electricity has increased substantially. Renewable technology as a green (sustainable) solution of this dramatic increase has therefore attracted more attentions. Through the process of designing and installing a commercial solar power system, several market barriers have been discovered, which include: State government barriers; Local government barriers; Western Power (network distributor) barriers; Energy retailer barriers; Customer barriers. This dissertation included the experience of installing a commercial solar PV system, and discusses the barriers identified. To overcome those barriers, more efforts would need to be made at all levels.
