THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW

Installing solar panels will make you money 

With electricity prices predicted to rise by 62% over the next three years it makes a lot of sense to turn to solar.

There are two government schemes available at the moment that mean not only will you be able to get money off your initial payment but you’ll also be able to earn money for the electricity you generate each year.

So instead of paying your electricity provider – they’ll be paying you!
 

You could increase the value of your home

Installing solar panels can also push up the value of your home.

Investing in a solar power system currently offers a better return than placing your money in a term deposit at the bank.  It makes sense to add value to your biggest asset - your home.
 

You’ll also be helping the environment

Installing a Green Solar Group solar power system can provide all your electricity needs without greenhouse gas emissions.  

A 2kW solar power system from Green Solar Group will reduce your CO2 emissions by 3 tonnes per year!
 

There will be minimal disruption to your home

It’s not disruptive – we’ll be in and out in 1 day for systems up to 2kW and we organise everything for you – even the installation of a solar meter for your home to help you save even more money
 

Things to consider

Make sure your Solar Panel Company uses quality products

Quality products and technology are important. When it comes to choosing a solar power system it is critical that you have the best products and technology to ensure quality and longevity.

A solar PV system includes a number of different components:

• Solar Modules capture the sun’s rays top produce DC Electricity
• Inverter & Isolator used to convert DC electricity from the modules to AC electricity, which is used in the home
• Mounting & Framing Brackets to fix the solar modules securely on the rooftop
• Cabling & Wiring to connect the solar modules to the inverter and the meter board
• Solar Meter to measure the amount of power the solar power system generates


The quality of these components and the technology used varies by manufacturer and the quality standards of the installation company.  

At Green Solar Group we only install the highest quality products available on the market. Everyone of the modules we install are tested by 750 quality control staff.

We install Suntech modules. Suntech are the world’s leading solar module manufacturer, using technology developed in Australia in conjunction with the University of NSW.  The modules use the highest grade silicon ensuring greater efficiency & longevity – which means more power for your home, more C02 savings, and more money under the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme.

The modules:
• Surpass Australian & International Standards (IEC61215 & IEC61730)
• Are on the approved Clean Energy Council list for Australian installations (AS/NZS 5033)
• Come with a 12 year 90% performance warranty and a 25-year 80% performance warranty
 

Avoid companies whose solar panels are new to the market

Green Solar Group uses panels from the worlds’ leading solar module manufacturer - Suntech. Our panels come with a 12-year 90% performance warranty & 25-year 80% performance warranty.

As most solar modules come with a long term warranty it is important to ensure they will be around at that time to fulfill any warranty issues that may arise in the future.
 

Choose a company that doesn’t outsource its work

Green Solar Groups take care of everything from system design to installation of solar meter, energy monitors and ongoing system maintenance. We even set up your connection to the grid with your energy company. Many other companies outsource these jobs.

All our solar power systems are designed and installed by Clean Energy Council (CEC) Accredited Installers. Unlike other solar installation companies, Green Solar Group do not subcontract any of our installations and all install team members are Green Solar Group employees.  What’s more, only licensed electricians conduct our electrical work.
