Solar Power Rebates in Perth

By Ian Milne


Solar energy has gained more recognition and more folk are using this alternative source of energy partly or fully. The benefits of using solar energy are many as you will make savings on your power bills, you may reduce your carbon emissions footprint as the quantity of energy that you use will significantly decrease and you will find that solar energy is cleaner energy as it does not produce any contaminants.

As the installation costs of solar energy system can be prohibitory and also for increased incentive to make use of this cleaner form of energy, there is a system of solar rebates in Perth available.

When you install a solar system in your home then you qualify for solar rebates in Perth using Green Energy Certificates (RECs). This is calculated using a number of factors such as the size of your solar system and the quantity 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 upon. One REC unit is equal to 1 hour of electricity megawatt power. The more solar energy that you are able to generate using your solar system the more the savings you're able to get.

You need to also note that REC costs change like the stock markets. To get the most out of your REC units, you can cling to them when the costs are low then sell when they're higher.

To avoid all this altogether, you can take the standard discount from your solar system installer so that you are not affected by varying costs. You can trade your RECs on the exchange. The best way to gain from solar rebates is to greatly scale back your electricity use.

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