Western Australia gets plenty of sunshine, and more and more WA homes and businesses are putting solar on their roofs. Here’s a quick look at why it’s worth thinking about.
Lower power bills
Solar panels make electricity during the day. Every unit of power you use from your own panels is one less unit you buy from the grid. How much you save depends on your system size, how much power you use during the day, and your tariff. We’ll go through that with you before you decide.
Well suited to WA conditions
Perth and much of regional WA get lots of clear, sunny days, which suits solar well. A properly designed and installed system will keep producing power for many years.
Rebates and incentives
Government incentives, including Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs), can lower the upfront cost of a solar system. Under Synergy’s Distributed Energy Buyback Scheme (DEBS), eligible WA households can also earn credits for solar power they send back to the grid. We’ll explain what applies to you and show it on your quote.
More control with a battery
A battery stores the solar power you don’t use during the day so you can use it in the evening. That means you rely less on the grid and are less affected by future power price changes.
Cleaner energy
Making your own power from sunlight cuts the amount of grid electricity you use and lowers your household’s or business’s carbon footprint.
