Grid Connect Solar Power

Grid connect solar power means that you can generate your own clean energy and feed it back to the electricity grid. The surplus that you feed back will be credited against what you have used and thus save you money.

For example, from a 1.5kW photovoltaic power system in Melbourne, you could expect to generate around 8kWh/day and thus save up to $400-$1,500/year in power depending on your energy retailer's solar premium rate and what proportion of your solar power is exported from your house.

The price that your solar generated power is sold at depends on your power retailer and the agreement you sign with them. Currently in Victoria all energy retailers must offer you at least 60cents/kWh for energy exported from your home, though some offer higher rates of 66 and 68cents/kWh. Total cost of installed 1.5kW system in Melbourne (Zone 4) is approximately $9,500 (including GST) less the Solar Credits (5 x RECs @$29) is approximately $5,650 net cost of PV power system.

Depending on your location and solar availability of your roof you could expect to save a lot more on your electricity bills. A grid connect solar system can pay back your investment and
