Solar Energy Rebates in Perth

By Ian Milne


Solar energy has gained more renown and more folk are using this alternative source of power partially or completely. The benefits of using solar energy are countless as you will make savings on your energy bills, you may cut back your carbon emissions footprint as the amount of energy that you use will significantly decrease and you'll find that solar energy is cleaner energy as it does not produce any contaminants.

As the installation costs of solar energy system can be excessive and also for increased incentive 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 house then you qualify for solar rebates in Perth using Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). This is calculated using a number of factors such as 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 is the same as 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 should also realize that REC costs change just like the stock markets. To get the best from your REC units, you can cling to them when the prices are low then sell when they are higher.

To avoid all this altogether, you can take the standard discount from your solar system installer so that you aren't influenced by changing costs. You can trade your RECs on the exchange. The most effective way to profit from solar rebates is to greatly scale back your electricity use.

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