Wanting to know more about solar? Wondering how you can make more sustainable choices or maybe even go off grid? Here’s a brief guide to get you on your way.

How does solar work?

Solar panels harness energy from sunlight and a inverter(s)/ and/or battery create usable energy for all your electrical needs.

What size system do I need?

There are various factors to consider when going solar. 

  • How much energy you currently use…
  • Devices or extra electrical appliances e.g. pool, air-con.
  • Roof space (could limit the size depending on how many panels can fit)

Our Neon consultant along with our engineers will determine the most efficient system for your property.

What’s the difference between grid vs off-grid solar systems?

Basically a grid solar system is when your solar panels produce less electricity than what your property requires, the rest is supplied by the power grid (your local electric company).

Off-grid is a stand-alone system that uses a storage battery like Telsa Powerwall to store the electricity generated.  The off-grid  solar panel system will produce more electricity during the day than what your property can consume. The excess electricity is used to charge a storage battery from where you draw your power at night when the solar panel system is producing very little electricity.

How do I get started?

Simply contact us and our team will be able to determine the most efficient system for your property.  Whether it be a brand new property being built or an existing dwelling we can assist.
