Grid Connect Solar Power Systems

Utilise your roof space and save

Reduce your power bills and CO² output by utilising your roof space. A grid connected solar power system will supply your household with energy and, if you consume less than you produce, feed the surplus to the electricity grid. Surplus energy is usually metered and credited to your power bill (depending on what State you are in and what retailer you are with). Some electricity providers install a bidirectional meter that runs backwards when you feed electricity to the grid. At present, only a few NSW retailers offer a voluntary feed-in tariff.

Grid Feed Solar System

A grid feed solar system essentially consists of solar panels and an inverter. The inverter converts the DC electricity into 240V. Inverters are small and can be mounted on the inside or outside of your house. The solar panels are ideally mounted on a north facing roof. You could also mount the panels on a pole or ground frame if your roof is facing 'the wrong way'.

Maintenance

Solar panels and inverters require minimum maintenance as they do not have any moving parts. Rain will usually keep the panels clean. Today's solar panels come with a 25-year performance warranty, but are designed to last 50 years or more.

System Size and Cost

To determine an appropriate system size you could check your power bill for your average daily consumption. We have comprised 4 system examples to give you an idea what to expect. Prices include solar panels, inverter, basic frame (not tilted), cabling, fuses, labels and labour. Download our grid feed price list.

High Quality Components

We only use components that are tested to be of high quality. Cheap components do not pay in the long run.

Trina Solar Panels - best value

Independently tested on-site in the Australian desert, Trina Solar panels produced the second best average output versus leading Japanese, European and American brands, revealing the superior quality and performance delivered by a vertically integrated manufacturing process. See test results.

Kyocera Solar Panels - best performance

Kyocera's 135 Watt grid tie solar panel has advanced cell processing technology and automated production facilities have produced highly efficient multi-crystal photovoltaic modules.
