WHY SWITCHING TO SOLAR ENERGY IS A GOOD THING.

The benefits of using a clean source of renewable energy are become clearer and more Australians are adopting solar power than ever before.

Electricity consumers in Australia have experienced substantial increases in electricity bills in the last few years.

It is expected that electricity prices will only get more expensive into the future.

Reducing your reliance on public electricity mains, or even becoming completely independent, means that you will not only save money on increasing electricity bills, but you’ll be enhancing the value of your property for the future.

Solar energy is a clean, sustainable power generation source that relies purely on sunlight.

Instead of burning harmful fossil fuels, solar power uses the sun, a clean resource that does not produce any emissions.

When you move away from traditional greenhouse gas-emitting sources, you are making way for a cleaner, more sustainable future.

Australia is the ideal location for solar energy and solar panel installation for both commercial and residential properties. Our weather is stable and our area has plenty of sunny days. 

No matter where you are located, we’ll design a custom solar power system which will take advantage of the abundance of sunlight our amazing country has to offer.

Kaptol Electrical, along with the clean energy council, are helping support a cleaner future for our country.

The most important part of the design is to ensure we maximise the benefits of positioning and orientation of the system.

HOW DOES THE FEED-IN TARIFF WORK?

Feed-in tariffs are the amount of money an electric provider pays you for any excess solar energy collected and converted into AC power.

All the unused energy your solar panel system collects is tracked and automatically sent back to the power grid.

Feed-in tariff rates vary greatly depending on your location and your chosen electricity provider.

However, typical rates range from 8 to 12 cents per kWh.

We recommend you contact your electric provider directly to find out how their feed-in tariff program works and how much they pay for excess energy.

The independent website WATTever helps consumers compare feed-in tariffs in their location.

You can use this tool to determine which electric provider offers the best program in your area.

The best way to maximise your feed-in tariff payments is to use most of your electricity during peak sunlight hours. For example, try to use your major appliances, such as your dishwasher and washing machine, during these peak hours.

Another great way to help reduce your power costs for your home or office is to purchase energy-efficient appliances and light bulbs.

HOW LONG DOES THE SOLAR INSTALLATION TAKE?

There are a number of steps involved in the solar power installation.

Step one is to complete the application for permission to build a PV solar power grid on your property. This generally takes our technicians between one and two weeks to complete the application process.

We then allow an additional week for the application to be approved. This is just a guide and approvals may take longer.

Once the application has been approved, we order the components and set a date to complete the solar system installation process.

In most cases our CEC-accredited installers will complete the installation in one day. Factors like the weather, location and size of the solar panels can require additional days.

On average, we complete a solar panel installation within four to twelve weeks.
