Alexandra Hills Solar Upgrades: Maximise Your Returns and Savings

Upgrading Your Solar System in Alexandra Hills: How It Can Benefit You

If you installed your solar system several years ago, you may have started with a smaller setup due to the high cost of solar panels at the time. However, upgrading and expanding your solar system can lead to better returns and cost savings. Here’s how an Alexandra Hills solar upgrade can benefit you.

Increase Your Power Output With More Panels

Older solar systems, such as a 1.5kW setup, may not generate enough energy to power your entire home during the day. This results in additional costs to your electricity bill. By upgrading to a larger, premium solar system like a 6.6kW setup, you can add more panels and generate more energy to power your home. You can also export excess energy to the main grid, which translates to more credit on your energy bill via the feed-in tariff.

Improve Efficiency and Performance

Solar equipment can degrade over time and affect your system’s efficiency. By upgrading to the latest state-of-the-art technology, you can ensure maximum energy production and cost savings. Neglecting your outdated solar system could lead to unnecessary expenses, making an upgrade a wise investment.

Get More Value From Your Feed-In Tariff

While solar customers who signed up prior to 2012 may be receiving higher credit rates for the excess energy they provide, a smaller or outdated system may not be generating enough excess energy to benefit from the pre-2012 feed-in tariff. Upgrading to a larger system with more panels will result in increased energy production, more excess energy to be exported to the main grid, and more credit on your energy bill even with a lower per kW feed-in tariff.

Receive New Warranties On New Components

One of the greatest benefits of upgrading your old solar system is the fact that you receive new warranties. Many systems originally came with a 5 or 10-year warranty – meaning these have now expired for many people on the high feed-in tariff. Nowadays, manufacturers off up to 30 years’ warranty on panels and 10 years on most inverters.

Upgrade To A Larger Solar System

While solar customers who signed up prior to 2012 may be receiving higher credit rates for the excess energy they provide, a smaller or outdated system may not be generating enough excess energy to benefit from the pre-2012 feed-in tariff. Upgrading to a larger system with more panels will result in increased energy production, more excess energy to be exported to the main grid, and more credit on your energy bill even with a lower per kW feed-in tariff.
