Industry and Consumer Reference Group

The Industry and Consumer Reference Group provides input into the effective delivery of our programs and the sustainable development of the solar industry in Victoria.

We established the Industry and Consumer Reference Group (ICRG) in October 2019 so that industry and consumer representatives with many years of experience could help shape our programs, their development and implementation.

The ICRG continues to provide advice to Solar Victoria and the Victorian Government on the effective delivery of the Solar Homes Program and supports the sustainable development of the solar industry in Victoria.

South East Water Managing Director Lara Olsen is the Independent Chair of the ICRG. ICRG members meet regularly to provide advice on:

  • safety and quality matters, and associated standards
  • consumer protections and customer experiences
  • technology requirements
  • future grid requirements
  • skills and workforce development
  • product stewardship
  • other matters relevant to the Victorian solar industry.

Members have been selected to provide diverse input from a range of small, medium and large businesses, different backgrounds and from metropolitan and regional areas.

Organisation representatives are nominated by their organisation, and industry representatives are appointed by the CEO of Solar Victoria through an Expression of Interest process.
