About 5B

5B is an Australian clean technology company on a mission to accelerate the world’s transition to renewable energy. Our name reflects the 5 billion years of sunshine our planet still has and our drive to unlock it in the simplest and most powerful way possible.

We’re transforming the way solar farms are built through the 5B Maverick, a prefabricated solar solution designed from first principles to deliver faster deployment, greater efficiency, and lower costs. Structurally efficient, aerodynamic, and installed at lightning speed, Maverick is redefining large-scale solar construction around the world.

To accelerate our innovation, 5B was recently awarded AUD $46 million in funding from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA), supporting a major R&D and product development program to further scale our technology globally.
