Why Choose Solar?
Did you know Australia has the highest solar radiation per square metre of any continent on the planet? It’s no wonder our sun-drenched country is the perfect landscape for solar generation!
With the most sunlight, and generous government rebates and subsidies, Australians achieve the best Return on Investment in the world. By making the switch to solar, not only will your energy bills be drastically reduced, you’ll be contributing to a more sustainable future.
The real question is why not?
Save your Pennies
It’s no secret electricity prices have risen dramatically in recent years. Who doesn’t want to save money on bills whilst simultaneously reducing their carbon emissions and living greener?
Infinite Free Energy
According to NASA, the sun is estimated to burn for another 5 billion years.
In fact, in one hour enough sunlight falls on our planet to power the world’s energy needs for a whole year!
Reduce reliance on Coal and Gas
In Australia, the main sources of electricity generation are fossil fuels (2022: coal 47%, gas, 19%). Reducing our reliance on electricity providers helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions generated during the manufacturing, installation, delivery and maintenance of outdated power stations.
Recyclable
Solar Panels not only have a long lifespan of approximately 25-30 years, but all their parts can be recycled here in Australia.
More affordable than ever
Current government incentives, rebates and financing options reduce the overall cost, making solar even more affordable, subsequently improving your return on investment. There is no better time to go green and install solar, especially as utility prices are expected to continue to rise.
Feed-in-Tariffs
For any excess energy your solar system produces, you may be able to sell it back to your electricity provider via a Feed-in-Tarif (FiT). Generally, this works by receiving a credit on your electricity bill, further reducing your energy costs and improving your Return on Investment.
With a home battery, trading your stored power back to the grid during peak-demand times is even more profitable, making batteries a viable option.
Rebates Rebates Rebates!
The Federal and Victorian Governments have recognised the importance of renewable energy for the future of our country by implementing a multitude of incentives, rebates and finance options to reduce the cost barrier of solar for everyday Australians and businesses.
Current rebates:
Small Scale Technology Certificates (STCs)
Solar Victoria rebates for solar PV installations and/or batteries discount
Interest-free and low interest loans
See our Rebates webpage for more information.
Reduce Carbon Emissions Fast
On average, a typical 6.6kW solar system generates around 10,000 kWh a year, saving approximately 8.7 tonnes of C02 emissions annually. Conversely, over a lifetime spanning 100 years, a fully grown tree may absorb one tonne of CO2.
Did you know that the manufacturing of solar panels produces four times LESS carbon emissions than building traditional power stations, and once they’re manufactured, they produce ZERO carbon emissions?
Return on Investment
Solar technology has improved exponentially since it’s inception and as a result has reached a point where it is now more affordable and accessible than ever before. The average time to pay off the cost of a solar system is only 2-4 years, yet solar panels typically last 25-30 years. That means you can access 20+ years of free power!
Maintenance Free
Solar Panels require little to no maintenance, they are self-cleaning with a long lifespan.
Increase your Home’s Value
Solar power not only helps to reduce your household energy bills, saving money for the sweeter things in life, but it can also help to increase the value of your property when it comes time to sell.
