It Is Time to Go Solar
By going solar, you'll be saving money, and most importantly - saving our planet.
Tasmanians can now fund their Solar Installation with the Energy Saver Loan Scheme which provides 0% interest loans to eligible applicants.
Better for the Environment
Solar energy technologies and power plants do not produce air pollution or greenhouse gases when operating. Using solar energy can have a positive, indirect effect on the environment when solar energy replaces or reduces the use of other energy sources that have larger effects on the environment.
Increased Home Value
Australians believe homes with solar are more valuable than the equivalent house without. Based on a survey of 1,005 Australians aged between 18-79 from all States and Territories in 2018, it was found that 77% of Australians think a house with solar is more valuable than those relying on traditional energy sources. With 57% of homeowners saying they would pay up to $10,000 more for a home equipped with solar
Savings
There are two ways you save with Solar:
​
-
You use the power from your solar panels first
That's right! When the sun is out, any power you use comes from the solar system first. If you use less power than what is available from the sun - it's completely free.
Changing your routine to have things like your washing machine, your dishwasher run while sunlight is providing power will save you plenty over the days and weeks.
-
Excess power goes back to the grid and gives you credits
Whenever the sun is shining on your solar panels AND you are not using ALL of the energy produced, that excess goes back to the grid and earns you a feed-in tariff that comes off your bill at the end of the month.
It may seem like small amounts, but getting credits to cover the times when the sun is nor shining really helps with your monthly bill
What is the process to install solar?
Start the Conversation
We recommend that every customer starts off with a simple conversation with our expert installers. There is a lot to understand before you make the decision to go ahead with an installation.
Roof Analysis
Things we look at include:
- We'll check if your roof material can handle the weight and load of a solar setup.
- How your roof is angled and which way it faces.
- Trees, buildings, or other things blocking the sun can make your solar panels less efficient.
Energy Usage Analysis
This involves discussing your historical electricity bills to understand your energy consumption patterns. This will help us determine the size and type of solar panel system required to meet your needs.
Other site considerations
-
Assessing your existing electrical wiring is crucial to ensure it can handle the additional load from the solar panels.
-
Installing solar panels might require obtaining permits from your local council. The assessor can provide guidance and advice on how best to navigate these processes.
Time for a quote
Once we have been to see the site for the installation and have a firm understanding of the infrastructure and associated systems ... we can design a solar solution that best suits your needs.
