Solar Batteries Canberra

A rechargeable solar battery stores surplus electricity generated from a panel array, enhancing energy capacity and providing power for use during nighttime or on cloudy days. Recent advancements in lithium ion battery design and reduced prices have increased the viability of solar battery storage.

Before investing in a battery or batteries, assess your energy needs to avoid purchasing more capacity than necessary. Surplus electricity can be fed into the grid for profit rather than going unused. If all the appliances in your home are electrical, they can be powered by solar energy.

It's crucial to note that battery storage systems pose a significant safety risk if incorrectly installed and may impact insurance coverage. Therefore, when selecting a solar solution, ensure to engage a reputable and licensed installer, such as Innovate Energy.

Solar Maintenance Canberra

A robust solar installation is crafted to withstand various conditions, yet it's essential to recognise that it remains an electrical system exposed to the elements year-round. Given the potential dangers of electricity, regular solar panel maintenance is crucial to ensure safety, and solar installations are no exception.

Routine servicing is vital for identifying potential issues before they become fire or electrocution hazards. Additionally, solar system maintenance checks encompass panel cleaning to eliminate dust and dirt, ensuring optimal system performance.

Key components of a solar maintenance check include:

• Clearing debris and cleaning solar panels, especially crucial for flat installations
• Inspecting the inverter and DC isolator switch for water damage and safe operation
• Assessing the system's electrical cabling and circuitry for potential weathering or rodent-related damage
• Checking roof mountings for signs of corrosion or rust
• Ensuring unimpeded access to isolator switches and displaying emergency shutdown and isolation procedures clearly
• Confirming the system's output aligns with expectations based on panel size, age, location and positioning
• Providing a written report on the solar installation's status and health

Solar Panels Canberra

When deciding on solar panels for your home or business in Canberra, it's vital to choose leading brands that offer the most energy efficient solutions for your solar power needs. Considering the lifespan and warranties of solar panels is crucial, making it essential to pick panels that are the best fit for your roof space.

High quality solar panels not only reduce your electricity costs but also enhance the value of your property. Opting for solar PV allows you to enjoy the standard 10 year product warranty for solar panels in Australia.

Our team is available to provide guidance and assist you in selecting the right solar panels for your property, ensuring a sustainable and cost effective solar panel investment for the future.

Solar Inverters Canberra

Solar inverters play a vital role in a solar photovoltaic (PV) system. They are responsible for transforming the direct current (DC) output generated by solar panels (capturing energy from the sun) into alternating current (AC) electricity, the type used by your household appliances.

Monitoring inverters can be done through a computer program or mobile app to track energy generation, consumption, and ensure the system operates correctly. There are various types of inverters suitable for home systems.

Our solar specialists can help advise you on the most suitable solar inverter for your solar system Canberra.

Commercial Solar Systems Canberra

When implementing commercial solar systems for your business, it's essential to consider the unique requirements and challenges associated with larger installations. Commercial properties often provide more space for solar panels, allowing for the installation of larger scale systems. However, determining the appropriate size for your business's needs can be difficult to tackle.

Our team of experienced solar technicians can assess your energy usage and design a system tailored to your specific requirements. Additionally, we can help with connecting your solar system to the grid and acquire the necessary approvals from the network.

Cost to Install a Solar System Canberra

Installing solar solutions is becoming more affordable, and the technology keeps getting better. Usually, if you install a solar system today, it can pay off your initial investment in about 5 to 6 years by saving on your power bills. 

Also, as electric cars become more popular, you might use the free electricity from your home solar system to charge your car in the future. These steps help reduce pollution and provide a sustainable energy source for the future.

Important Considerations When Deciding To Install Solar Canberra

When choosing solar panels, it's important to pick a system that will last a long time and withstand the Australian weather. But there's more to think about. Here are some tips to help you understand your investment and make the best choice for your needs:

A basic solar system includes solar panels, an inverter or optimiser, a roof mounting system, and electrical accessories like circuit breakers and wires. All these parts need to be good quality because if one isn't, it can make the whole system less efficient and not last as long.

Electricity Meter Upgrades for New Solar Installations Canberra

Considering your roof's direction is crucial when setting up solar panels, but understanding your electricity usage patterns is also important. Your solar power installer can align your solar panel direction with your usage patterns to maximise energy collection during peak times, ensuring optimal savings for you.

Differentiate between an 'output warranty' and a 'manufacturer's warranty.' An output warranty focuses on maintaining specific energy output levels as the solar panel ages, distinct from a manufacturer's warranty. For instance, if a panel completely stops working, it isn't covered by the output warranty.

When selecting a solar system, think beyond your current requirements. It's a lasting investment and given the changing landscape of battery storage and the growing prevalence of electric cars, having the option to expand your solar solution in the future can be advantageous.
