Might seem obvious but solar panels need quite a lot of sun to get a return on your investment.
If you live on the south coast happy days.
www.choice.com.au provide a good guide below
Before buying a solar panel:
- Improving the energy efficiency of your home can save you up to 30% on your bills – turning off appliances, using the dishwasher when full and purchasing energy-efficiency appliances.
- Check if the roof faces the right direction. Only north-facing panels will produce their full capacity.
- Find out what local council approval is needed. Increasingly, local councils also have advisors that can assist you with making the best decisions on solar.
- Determine what energy reduction you would like to achieve. Assess what energy you currently use and the capacity panel you need (and can afford).
- Do the sums to estimate the system’s payback time and the environmental difference it will make.
- Identify various providers/installers available. Seek quotes. Make sure the installer is accredited and that the panel meets the international standards. See
