Solar power systems save homeowners money is not in question, but how much money can you realistically expect to save by installing a solar solution at home? To accurately answer that question, take the following factors into consideration:

Your Household’s Average Energy Consumption
Look at the back page of your most recent power bill where the amount of energy consumed is shown in kilowatt hours (kWh) to determine how much electricity your household currently uses. A household with large energy demands usually requires a solar power system in the 5KW range (or higher) which generates between 18kW/h – 25kW/h. Contact us to learn whether there are any regional limitations to the size of the solar power system that you can install in your area.

Your Usage Patterns
Solar power systems use the clean, natural energy they produce during the day before drawing power from the grid, with any excess energy produced directed back into the grid. This helps to offset your energy bills as your energy provider will credit you for the energy fed back into the grid by your system.

We develop a solar system to suit each client’s individual needs. Things such as roof space, optimum panel location, orientation and pitch of the roof, the structural soundness – if it supports the weight of panels and racks. The impact of shade, in all seasons and all time of day to the panels; ensure design meets building codes and electrical standards and many more. Solar Repairs will personalise your solar system for you, have all design and installation plans approved, and work with you to ensure the very best outcome.

Yes, however, it may prove to be a very expensive project if you don’t make the right provisions. Almost any system can have an AC or DC coupled system retrofitted to it, but as this requires additional components in addition to batteries, and different batteries require different components, you’re advised to look for more cost-effective ways to add batteries to your system. Whether you’re looking to add batteries now or in the future, our consultants can help you understand the options you have available to achieve the battery solution you desire.
