There are 2 ways how you can claim grid connect solar subsidies. As a customer you can ask your solar company to claim the subsidies on your behalf by giving them authority in writing or STC’s can be alloacted to you as a customer and you can claim STC’s as well.

Your Return on Investment may vary due to your usage habits, Panel face orientation, location etc. It is best to call our one of the team member and they will set side by side with you and work on your return on investments for you to help making informed decision.

We strongly recommend you that when you choosing a solar system you should consider more of the product rather than concentrating only on prices. Do you know all you solar panels must be registered with clean energy council, to check registration please visit http://www.cleanenergycouncil.org.au

Solar power can save anywhere between $15000 to $30000 over the lifetime of solar system. In Australia 1 KW solar can save average of $400 per year. Savings can vary depending on the location and many other factors like weather, shading, direction of panels.

As we have seen, most of Queensland is in STC Zones 1 and 2, and Queensland's solar panel systems are the cheapest compared to other states. However, Queensland prices are higher than Greater Brisbane because they include shipping and travel costs for the goods. A typical 6.6kW solar panel system in

Brisbane costs $ 3,500 to $ 5,000 for a standard metropolis installation. A standard subway installation is in a one-story subway area  with a tin roof. The price of a 6.6 kW solar system depends on the installation in the area, in a two-story or higher house, or in a house with a tiled roof. The price of a 6.6kW PV system also depends on the brand of the module or inverter.

• Solar panels converet sun light into direct curret (DC Power) electricity.
• To be able to use them in home we need to install a inverter which converts DC power into normal AC power
• A inverter also records your productions on a daily basis
• Any surplus electricity is directly sold (exported) into grid and generates feed in tariff.

Queensland is known as the "Sunshine State". Queensland is one of the most sunny areas in the country and  can be considered one of the best places to install solar panels from a productivity standpoint. More sunlight means more energy, which means more savings in utility bills. More savings, in turn, translate into shorter payback periods.

Again, Queensland's solar panel systems are the lowest priced compared to other states, and many of Queensland fall into STC Zones 1 and 2 (Small Technical Certificates). Other states or regions. This has a direct impact on the price of the solar system.

These reasons, along with soaring utility bills, have made Queensland's inevitable choice of solar panel systems. With an average life expectancy of about 15-20 years, solar panel systems are considered beneficial as a long-term investment in Queensland.

Commonly people install – 6.6KW Solar system on a house with single phase which suits most houses with billing average of $350 – $500 Quarterly.

If billing averages between $500 to $800 Usually 10KW system would be ideal for the household.

People with three phase power on a property usually tend to put 10KW or more due to the benefit of feed in tariff. (# 3 phase property are allowed all access solar production to feed into grid without much restriction)

Cost of solar panels has continued to change over the past decade behind different government incentive schemes and increased diversity in the panels, inverters and suppliers on the market. Being an informed consumer is increasingly important. Similar to buying a car or a computer, you’ll want to be sure that your system is a sound investment that best meets your needs at a reasonable price. It is important to be clear on what you want from your solar PV system.

• Government rebates and support schemes (these vary in each state)
• Location
• Number of panels
• Orientation of panels
• Type of panels
• Type of inverter
• System design and configuration
• Shipping costs for equipment and parts
• Contractor installation costs
• Removal of trees or other shading
• Type of roofing (for example, tiled or tin)
• Height of roof
• Site preparation needs (for example, condition of roof or ground)
• Structural engineering, architectural, and other professional services (for commercial systems)

Keeping in mind the variables mentioned above, the table below shows an approximate guide on price range for grid-connected solar PV systems in the major capital cities. Government rebates such as Renewable Energy Certificates, Solar Credits and Feed-in Tariffs are included in these figures.

Hybrid Solar Solutions offers 10 years workmanship warranty to all our installations. Workmanship warranty mainly covers any faulty installations, roof leakages caused by solar install, any damage to the property during installation.

Solar panels technologies continues to improve on a time to time, LG and  the Australian Consumer Organization, have been involved in several comparative tests between the LG panel and many other panels. The LG NeON2 and NeONR panels are  one of the consistently best performing panels in these tests. This means you can get good power generation in dark places and all other weather conditions.  One of the reasons why the NeON 2 module performs so well is the double-sided cell structure. This innovative approach allows  light to be absorbed from the front and  back of the cell, and the  light hits the edges and back of the solar cell to generate additional electricity, improving module performance.

The solar panels deteriorate at the end of their life and generate less electricity each year. NeON2 and NeONR have very little annual deterioration. Throughout the life of an LG panel, system degradation is typically  10% less  than cheaper panels. This adds a few dollars to the additional power generation using the LG NeON panel over the years. The LG Solar Panel was rated 4.7  out of 5 by Australia's independent rating platform.

If the property is connected to a grid, you can select Queensland's grid-connected solar. This type of system  uses the power generated by the PV system rather than the more expensive power  from the grid, helping to save power costs during daylight hours. The system comes with  a conventional inverter that connects to the solar panel and grid. This system works only when the main power is on and shuts down in the event of a power outage or grid failure. This solar panel system is ideal for commercial facilities such as homes, offices and  sheds where most of the energy is used during the day.

If you use more power outside of business hours, or if you consume more power at night, you can opt for a hybrid solar panel system in Queensland. The hybrid PV system provides the ability to store excess unused PV in the battery. This battery  can be used during non-business hours or at night, minimizing the power consumption of more expensive power from the grid. The hybrid solar power system comes with solar panels,  hybrid inverters and batteries as needed.

If the property is not connected to the  grid, you can choose an off-the-grid or standalone solar panel system in Queensland. The system comes with a solar panel and a battery. This system usually requires a lot of batteries  to store energy, and the cost of the batteries is so high that it turns out to be very expensive.

Due to increase in the electricity prices every year grid connect solar systems proves to be very fruitful in a long term. Solar systems can help you to eliminate the part of your bill by investing money once instead of paying bills lifetime. Research shows house valuation has gone up by $20.73 for every $1 decrease in energy bills. It is also way to help environment by producing renewable energy and reducing carbon foot prints. If you are thinking of investing in solar systems we will help you to make right decision.
