You've probably heard all about solar energy and residential solar panels, but do you know just how much of a difference they can make to both your power bill, and the environmental sustainability of your home?

Solar energy is obtained by drawing on the light or heat from the sun, and converting it into sustainable electricity. The technologies used in this process are continually developing, and Australia is a front-runner in the uptake of residential solar energy technology. A variety of solar devices are used in many different households, and as the technology continues to advance, it becomes even more affordable.

The installation of solar panels is one of the most common methods through which Australian households and businesses decrease their emissions and their power bills - thanks in no small part to the quality of our solar resource down under! The use of solar energy in the home is so popular, that it is predicted that by 2030, the implementation of solar panels into homes in the state of Victoria alone will be the equivalent of removing 4.6 million cars from the roads.

Heating, cooking, lights, and even phones and chargers can all receive the solar-treatment, allowing you to rest easy knowing that  your home is contributing to a healthier planet, and a better world. 

 

So, can you install solar in your home?

Solar energy is one of the most user-friendly and popular renewable energy systems in households across the world, and can be implemented in a variety of ways. 

Solar energy solutions can also be integrated into a single system of the home, if needed. For example, solar water heaters are an effective and reliable way to decrease your water heating bill, which can account for more than 15% of your total electricity or gas bill.

It has been reported that installing solar energy can cut your energy bill by approximately 30-40% and that within two years installation, you will have paid for the solar panel and energy system with your savings! A win for your pocket and the environment!
