Solar Panel Rebate
Solar Panels in Brisbane
Solar energy consumption has been has been a rapidly growing trend in Australia with nearly more homes installing solar panels in Brisbane in 2010 than in all the previous years combined. This is largely thanks to strong Australian federal and state government support which has made it more affordable for families to make the switch to solar energy through generous solar schemes and rebates. All Australian states have their individual guidelines and incentives in place, so check what you are eligible for before you make the decision to install solar panels.
There are three different types of solar panels; mono-crystalline, amorphous and crystalline, and a typical Brisbane home will have a combination of this three installed. Solar panels are excellent investment in Brisbane thanks to the very favourable climate, latitude and long hours of sunshine which allow the solar systems to produce their maximum possible energy output. The state government currently has no cap in place on its feed in tariff scheme which means that you can sell back any excess clean energy you produce to your local electricity provider at a much higher rate than you are paying to buy their fossil fuel produced electricity.
A solar PV purchase is a big decision that shouldn’t be rushed into without expert advice as there are many variables which influence the amount of electricity a PV system will actual produce into your meter box. This includes your allowable roof space & its aspect & angle, if there is any shading, how much electricity your family is currently using and of course your available budget. These factors should all be assessed during an in home consultation by a solar specialist, don’t rely on an over the phone quote.
There are other issues that need to be considered as well including the specific components that make up your system, (especially the inverter which is crucial), and their design and optimum installation. All government solar rebates are only given on solar panels & inverters that are accredited to Australian standards (see the Clean Energy Council website for a list) for their quality and then installed by accredited installers. Your solar PV system should last for 20+ years, so making sure that you purchase from long established manufacturers who are likely to still be around to fulfill their warranties is another important consideration that should influence your decision.
So before actually buying your solar panels look for a specialist in solar PV in Brisbane who offers an in home assessment to look at all of the factors mentioned above, can advise you about how to maximise your rebates and the feed in tariff, and has highly trained staff who understand how to correctly design a system that will give that maximum power output for the smallest investment.
