One Step Off the Grid wishes its readers season's greetings – see you in 2016!

We’d like to thank our readers for a great response to our new consumer-focused web-site (the sister site to www.reneweconomy.com.au) in the few short months it has been operating.
Already, more than 1,600 people receive our weekly newsletter, with an astonishing open rate of 54 per cent. And more than 40,000 people visited the website in the month of November.
In 2016, we hope to offer a lot more to our readers – including news of community initiatives, stories from individuals, households, businesses and communities on how they are tackling the clean energy challenge; and of course on the latest developments in rooftop solar and battery storage, which could become a mass market within a year or two.
Indeed, with more than 230,000 households losing their premium solar feed in tariffs at the end of 2016, we are confident that One Step Off The Grid will be even more relevant to Australian consumers.
We hope you can join us again. Our newsletter will resume in mid-January.
All the best for the festive season.
