Large-scale solar looks to be on the cusp of an Australian boom.

| The Moree solar farm is Australia's newest large-scale solar farm and the fourth largest in the country. |
The country has quietly had a record-breaking year in the construction of major solar projects, and the trend is predicted to continue.
Seven large-scale solar projects were completed in 2016 and even more will be built over the next 12 months, as rapid advances in technology propel large-scale solar towards price parity with wind power.
Clean Energy Council CEO Kane Thornton said it was "a record year" for large-scale solar, which could soon overtake wind as the cheapest form of renewable energy, thanks to rapid advances in technology.
