🚀 Game-Changer for Solar Construction
Australia just backed a robotic revolution in solar deployment.

⚙️ LUMI, an AI-powered robot, will now streamline solar panel installation at large-scale farms — backed by $4.9M funding from ARENA under its $100M Solar ScaleUp Challenge.
🔧 What LUMI Does:
Automates pick & place of solar panels
Cuts down manual labor & safety risks
Boosts installation speed by 3.5x
Targets 6.2% cost reduction in solar farm buildout
📍 First Fleet Launching At:
440MW Culcairn Solar Farm (NSW)
250MW Goorambat East Solar Farm (VIC)
🌞 ARENA’s Vision:
Solar installed cost → 30¢/watt
Levelised Cost of Electricity (LCOE) → below $20/MWh
Goal: Make Australia a renewable energy superpower
🧠 “This is not just a robot,” said Luminous CEO Jay Wong. “LUMI is a blueprint for smarter, faster, and safer solar builds globally.”
