If you haven’t started looking into solar panel installation, you should. Solar power is the future of energy production, and it has many benefits that are sure to appeal to homeowners in Perth. The average household spends approximately $2,000 per year on electricity bills. Some spend significantly more than this amount. This means that your solar panels could pay for themselves within a few years, if not months, of installing them.

Amazing Benefits of Installing Solar Panels

Solar panels have been making a comeback in recent years thanks to innovations that make them more efficient than ever before and affordable for most homeowners.

Eco-Friendly

Solar panels are one of the most environmentally friendly technologies in use today. They produce no harmful gases or waste and require negligible upkeep to function properly, which is a stark contrast to traditional fossil fuel power plants that emit large amounts of greenhouse gases into our atmosphere each year.

Cost-Effective

It is clean and free of charge, so there are no concerns about paying high prices just to have light in your home or powering up a phone charger. Furthermore, you can reduce your electric bill by generating and selling excess electricity to the power grid. This is the concept of ‘feed-in-tariffs.

Easy to Install

Solar panel installation is relatively simple, even if you lack the skills or knowledge to do it yourself. We can install solar panels on your house at a low cost and without much effort.

Low Voltage

Solar is a low-voltage power source that uses 12 or 24 volts of DC.

Renewable Energy

Solar power systems provide renewable energy to millions of people across the world. Solar panels can be placed in your home or business, reducing carbon emissions and providing you with clean, renewable solar-generated electricity for free! 

Value of A Property Increases

Solar panels are a smart way to prepare your home for sale. According to surveys conducted by Australians, most people believe that having these systems installed adds value to the property. There are estimates which suggest that an installation of around 5kW worth of power could increase the value of a property by up to $29K

Low Maintenance

Solar power systems don’t require much maintenance. Keeping them relatively clean is all you need to do. A couple of times per year will do! Solar panels are remarkably resilient, and once you’ve covered your initial cost, you’ll see very little in terms of spending on repairs or maintenance. The average annual solar system inspection should be around $150 with a qualified inspector.

How Does a Solar Panel Work?

The future of sustainable living lies in solar power generation. Here is a description of how solar panels produce electric power:

Solar Energy

Solar panels are built using photovoltaic cells, which convert rays of direct sunlight into direct current electricity. As direct current can only move in one direction, it needs to be converted for household use.

Inverter

Once the energy has been converted into a direct current, it needs to be converted to an alternating current, which your household structures are set up for. Alternating current is capable of travelling in both directions. They're great for powering your home!

Power

Now that your energy has been converted, you can use it in your household. So you use less power by turning off lights and other electronics when they are not in use to save money on electricity bills.

FAQs About Solar Panels & Solar Installation

We understand Installing solar is a big investment. You may have questions before determining whether PEC Electrical is the right solar company for you. We have compiled a list of frequently asked questions and answered them for your convenience.

Power prices in Australia are rising, which has led to an increase in solar installations. The cost of a good quality panel has never been lower, and if you install them on your home’s electrical system now, it could save you big bucks down the road.

Solar panel prices are at an all-time low in Australia. The prices of solar panels have come down so much that you can earn a return on your investment in 3 to 5 years. 

Solar panels are now more affordable than ever, with an 8kW solar system costing between $8000 and $9000 fully installed. This generates over 30-kilowatt hours of power per day averaged out across the year. Suppose you use all this energy generated from these panels. In that case, you can expect to save well over $3,000 every year on your electricity bills!

The rebates for solar power are very generous in West Australia. The solar power rebate value in Western Australia for 2020 is $814, equivalent to 22 solar technology certificates for 1.5kW systems. You will receive $1,110 or 30 STCs if you have a 2kW system. Using $37 as the STC value, these estimates are derived.

To encourage Australians to adopt solar energy, a rebate initiative was introduced in 2011. On December 31, 2030, the government will terminate its solar rebate program. It was decided that it would be better to phase out the rebate gradually rather than stop it immediately. Government officials determined that the phase-out period should be 15 years, ending at the end of December 2030.

Especially in sunny Australia, solar energy can help you reduce running costs dramatically. A number of factors must be taken into account to determine how much money can be saved by using solar energy:

  • The average amount of energy you use
  • Typical usage patterns
  • The feed-in tariff rate you chose
  • Installing a solar panel system of the appropriate size
  • Your location

Here are the approximate stats:-Installing an 8kW solar system can cut up to $3,400 off your total yearly expenses and lower the amount you pay per quarterly electric bill by as much as $850 each time around.
