UPowr customers now collectively displacing 1,898,000 kgs of CO2 every year

SYDNEY,July 1,2021 -- Australian cleantech company UPowr today announced that they had surpassed 2000kW install capacity for their residential solar business - the start-up's first major milestone on the road to making more electrified energy assets accessible to Australian homeowners.

UPowr customers are now collectively displacing an estimated +1.89 million kgs of CO2 every year,thanks to their solar power systems.*

This milestone is a major step for UPowr on its mission to accelerate the shift to a world beyond net zero,by transforming the way our homes generate and use energy.

By 2030,UPowr's goal is to displace over 7.5 Billion kilograms of CO2 from the atmosphere,by helping 1 million Aussie homeowners install clean energy assets.**

"I'm really proud of the team's effort in hitting the 2mW milestone. A big thank you to our partners who placed their trust in the UPowr business model. We're chasing 10mW next,and I can't wait to see what this team delivers," Stu Philpot,UPowr Co-Founder and CEO.

*CO2 displacement calculated as kW installed x 4 x 365 x 0.65 kg per year. 0.65 kg = average emission intensity of the grid in Australia,as at 2021.

** kW installed = ave system size (8kW) x 1 million households. CO2 displacement calculated using the below formula.
