Below we have answered a few frequently asked questions
1. How does solar electricity work ?
Each KW of solar install on your roof will produce approximately 1KW of electricity for your home for every daylight hour. (less any drop in efficiency from panels)
2. How many hours of daylight will I receive?
An average Adelaide home receives approximately 4-6hrs of daylight as an average throughout the year.
3. How much electricity do I use ?
An average Adelaide home uses around 18kw of electricity per day.
4. What about feed in tariffs ?
As an extra incentive to install solar power on your home, your energy provider offers on average $0.44 per kw credit for excess electricity fed back to the grid.
This helps you to achieve a $0 electricity bill, without having to install a massive system (if you don't use much energy whilst the sun is out)
How it works, is that if you are not home in the day & you create 9kw of electricity & sell it at $0.54 per KW you can use an average of 18kw at night & still not pay for the electricity (because you are buying it back at $0.195 per kw)
You could also still install a large system & actaully get paid by your energy retailer !!!!!!.
