Does getting a Solar PV system actually produce savings?Savings are guaranteed for rightly sized systems once the investment has been recovered through savings on lower energy bills. As there are minimal ongoing costs, your system will produce power for free, leading to additional household savings.
-
What is the STC “solar rebate” ?Small Scale Technology certificates (STC’s) are a financial incentive to reduce the upfront cost of solar for systems up to 100 kW. It is often termed as the “solar rebate” but in real terms, it is more of a financial incentive. Its purpose is to provide upfront discounts upon the total price of the system. All prices quoted by Z4E include this STC discount.
-
What are Feed in Tarrifs?Feed in tariffs are what your electricity retailer would pay per kWh solar exported back into the grid. This is ideal to make best use of any unused power your Solar PV system generates during the day. Typical values range around 5 - 16 c/kWh, which depends on your electricity retailer.
-
Are batteries worth it?Energy storage uptake through batteries has been increasing in Australia. They are ideal for homes with high energy bills or properties with solar but high night time energy usage. Batteries are the best way to store your excess generated solar power, which is often more economically viable than just availing current feed in tariffs. Even though batteries may take a longer payback period, they often do give maximum energy independence and are another step towards living a sustainable lifestyle.
-
Who will be installing my system?Solar PV systems are only installed by CEC accredited installers. They are not only registered electricians, but they have also undergone further training to design & install solar PV systems. This ensures all work is on par with industry standards.
