Melbourne-based Allume Energy has earned Australia's top design honor for SolShare, a novel system that acts as a traffic controller to distribute rooftop solar power across individual apartments. The technology solves a longstanding accessibility hurdle, allowing renters and unit owners to lower their electricity bills and access clean energy. By making shared solar simple and scalable, the device opens up renewable energy benefits to urban multi-family buildings.
