No doubt, you have heard about solar technology and its growth as a green energy source for families around Australia. In fact, 76% of Australians rank solar power in their top three preferred energy sources, making it the most popular one.1

Why is this the case? Solar helps reduce energy bills and carbon emissions, to lead a more sustainable lifestyle. Solar uses the sun’s free energy to provide power and hot water for your home, and both offer great advantages, enjoyed by millions of Australians. From reducing energy consumption to available government incentives, we look at six key benefits of making the switch from traditional energy to solar (backed by research and customer case studies).

Choosing solar is a smart decision. By using the sun’s energy, you can reduce your grid energy usage, contribute to a sustainable future and enjoy peace-of-mind.

However, it would help if you did your homework when selecting your solar provider. Approximately 700 solar companies have gone bust in Australia since 2011, leaving around 650,000 customers without support or warranties. This situation has resulted in customers having a poor experience with solar when it should be the other way around.

So, how do you know if you are dealing with a company you can trust? What questions should you ask? What answers should you get?

In this article, we will guide you with five key questions you should ask a potential solar provider. If they can’t answer any, or all of them convincingly, that would be the first red flag to notice that should make you think twice before doing business with them.

The Clean energy regulator recently released a media update showing an amazing rise in solar installations in 2017.

According to the data that was gathered through the small-scale renewable energy scheme there was in excess of 1057 megawatts of solar installed in 2017 across the country.

thats a whole lot of solar panels, infact the clean energy regulator estimated that this was equal to approximately 3.5 million solar panels on australian roof tops!

Our solar power systems only use world-leading REC panels and the world’s best quality inverters. Our solar panels are consistent with Solahart’s quality and performance requirements, using quality polycrystalline cells, anti-reflective glass and textured cells for greater sunlight absorption.
