Solar Rebates Perth: The Solar Naturally Discount

Are you aware that the Australian government is still offering subsidies to families to reduce their electricity bill? There are large incentives available for your family to install a solar power system, making installing solar panels even more affordable. Here at Solar Naturally, we want to assist you with finding more information about solar rebates Perth.

Small-Scale Technology Certificates (STCs)

Small-scale technology certificates, more commonly called STCs, were initiated by the Renewable Energy (Electricity) Act in 2000. These STCs are available when you install a renewable energy system such as solar power for your home or business.

Residential solar power and commercial solar power systems are eligible for STCs. They can be exchanged with us to obtain your up-front solar power rebate discount.

When purchasing a solar power system in Perth, you are also purchasing the right to these credits. If you choose to utilize your STCs, you are surrendering them into the open trading market, similar to shares. Companies will then purchase them to offset their own carbon footprint.

What Do STCs Represent?

An STC is a form of renewable energy currency. It is a kind of carbon credit that represents a unit of renewable energy. One STC is equivalent to one megawatt hour of electricity generation over a 15-year period.

How Many STCs Can I Receive?

The number of STCs you are awarded depends on how many megawatts of power your renewable energy system is expected to produce or offset over this 15-year period. Please visit http://ret.cleanenergyregulator.gov.au/ to find out how many STCs you are entitled to.

What Are STCs Worth?

STCs are a tradable commodity, similar to a share. Just like shares that you would trade on the stock exchange, the price of STCs fluctuates depending on supply and demand. Over the last few years, they have been at an all-time high, making it the perfect time to get a solar power system. To learn the current STC price, please call one of our solar consultants at 1300 168 138.

Cost Reduction

This translates into you paying the lowest price for your solar panels system. These solar rebates Perth are just another reason that you should consider solar power as a renewable energy source. With STCs, Solar Naturally can install your solar power system for an even cheaper price which puts money back in your pocket.
