Solar Energy Rebates in Perth

Solar Energy Rebates in Perth

By Ian Milne


Solar energy has gained more popularity and more folks are using this alternative source of energy partially or absolutely. The benefits of using solar electricity are many as you will make savings on your electricity bills, you will cut back your carbon print as the amount of energy that you use will be less and you will find that solar energy is cleaner energy as it doesn't produce any contaminants.

Because the installation costs of solar energy system can be prohibitory and also for increased inducement to make use of this cleaner form of power, there is a system of solar rebates in Perth available.

When you install a solar system in your home then you qualify for solar rebates in Perth using Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). This is calculated using lots of elements like the size of your solar system and the amount of energy it produces, the position of your house and REC price that you the owner of the house and the solar system installer will agree on. One REC unit equals 1 hour of electricity megawatt power. The more solar energy that you're able to generate using your solar system the more the savings you are able to get.

You must also be aware that REC prices change just like the stock exchanges. To get the most out of your REC units, you can cling on to them when the costs are low then sell when they are higher. To avoid all this altogether, you can take a standard discount from your solar system installer so that you aren't impacted by fluctuating prices. You can also trade your RECs on the stock market. The most effective way to benefit from solar rebates is to seriously scale back your electricity use.

This is simple in Perth as the weather is typically sunny.
