Solar Panels, Batteries and EV Chargers – Reduce Your Electricity Bills

Using energy from solar panels, batteries and EV chargers is an excellent way to reduce your household power bills. The savings can be significant over time, especially for homes that use a lot of energy during daylight hours.

The Port Macquarie Base Hospital pilot project shows large-scale solar is a viable option for health care facilities. This will help them save money on electricity costs, which can be invested back into frontline health services.

Solar Panels

Installing solar energy systems to generate your own electricity is an investment that will save you money and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In Lake Macquarie, with high levels of sun irradiation, residential solar power systems typically generate over 25kW a day. Overproduction of electricity is fed back into the grid at a 5c per kW hour feed in tariff, significantly reducing your home energy costs and offsetting carbon intensity. Larger commercial solar power systems can efficiently generate both hot water and electricity during peak periods, dramatically reducing business energy costs and offsetting carbon intensity.

Solar system design and installation requires consideration of several variables. Our experienced team will work with you to tailor a solution that fits your property and performance requirements, while maximising efficiency. We offer a range of finance options, which help you minimise upfront outlay. The most important factor, however, is establishing the payback period, savings in your energy bills and feed-in tariff rates.

Solar Hot Water

Having a solar hot water system professionally fitted to your roof will cut down on your electricity costs and help reduce greenhouse emissions for the environment. Although the upfront cost is a bit more than an electric or gas hot water system, your energy bills will be significantly less after you install solar.

Both a close-coupled and pumped solar hot water systems are available in a range of sizes that can suit any household. They both feature solar panels that absorb the sun’s heat to generate the hot water. The storage tank then receives the heated water and is kept warm for use in your home. Boosters can be electrical or gas-fuelled to provide backup on overcast days.

Both these types of solar energy systems are eligible for Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs). These subsidies can lower the purchase price of the system. These rebates are provided by the government to encourage renewable energy. They are not available with all providers, so be sure to check before you buy.

Solar Battery Storage

When paired with solar panels, battery storage provides backup energy for your home and can help reduce your electricity bills. It can also be used to feed back into the grid during on-peak periods for a generous return.

Solar battery technology is constantly improving, which means there are now a range of options available for your home. Our team can help you choose the best option for your needs and budget.

As a local company, we understand the specific weather conditions that Lake Macquarie experiences, such as salt spray and gale force winds. We will design and install a system that will take this into consideration, ensuring your system is suitable for your home.

We provide residential solar power systems in all of the suburbs and towns of Lake Macquarie, including Toronto, Morisset, and Swansea. We are also experienced in EV charging installations and offer a range of other energy efficiency solutions. Our customers love saving on their electricity costs and reducing their carbon footprint with a home battery.

Solar Panel Installation

Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity and provide an alternative energy source that reduces your power bills. The initial investment can be high, but the savings on your electricity bills and government incentives help you recoup the costs over time.

Across NSW, households can save more with solar than in other states thanks to higher sunshine hours, low system prices and a good feed-in tariff rate. A 6.6kW system will generate around 25kWh per day, enough to power a typical household and offset their electricity costs.

If you’re considering solar, the first thing to do is consider your energy usage patterns. A reputable solar retailer will analyse your usage and suggest a size that suits you best. They will also take into account local weather conditions, such as wind speeds and salt spray from the lake and ocean. This is important because it can affect how your system performs, especially over the long term. It will also influence your solar system’s cost and payback period.
