Solar Power Systems by Now Energy.

All solar modules will gradually degrade over the life of any solar installation!

Generally solar modules will o�er a performance warranty of 25 years. What most people don’t publish, is that the 25yr performance warranty is at 80% of it’s original performance & as little as 90% from day 1.

A good solar company will o�er;

• Solar modules with a linear performance warranty above 90% day 1 & 80% @ 25yrs.• Testing services to ensure your modules are operating within the warranted range.• Warranty services to ensure non performing modules are replaced.

Most warranty failures of solar power systems in Australia to date have been related to poor quality inverters!

Australia has seen an in�ux of poor quality inverters over recent years, this was due to an in�ux of global demand & lack of quality manufacturers ability to supply. The inverter represents over 30% of the overall product cost of a solar power system generally & only usually carry a warranty of between 5 & 10yrs.

A good solar company will o�er;

• Grid tie inverters from reputable manufacturers.• Grid tie inverters with extended warranty options.• Robust maintenance services & warranty procedures.

The installation of a good quality solar power system will reduce your reliance on fossil fuels & will save you enormously versus buying electricity from the grid.

Unfortunately a bad choice of company & or products can turn a great decision into a nightmare.

Things we think you should be aware of.

Solar power—what are you buying.

ROI for a solar power system can be in as little as 3yrs!

An investment in a solar power system is an attractive one, coupled with ever increasing energy prices the investment is only looking better.

Is a quick ROI enough of a reason to buy solar? We say no, after all would you buy any other investment to just get your money back?

A good solar investment will offer guaranteed returns well past it’s initial ROI.

A cheap solar power system may reduce the value of your property!

Many people opt for a solar purchase based purely on price as they are thinking of moving in less than 10yrs. Whilst on face value this seems likely a practical decision, the risk is whether the system will last long enough to add value to the home.

Would you pay more or less for a house with a broken solar power system, that needs to be removed or replaced?

Solar Power what’s involved?

This content will outline the several steps involved in the designing, purchasing, installing &commissioning a solar power plant for a residential or small commercial roof top grid connected system.

1. System DesignIn Australia to it’s is mandatory that a Clean Energy Council (CEC) approved designer, develops a system design. Now Energy has access to the latest satellite technology to o�er system design on roof tops, Australia wide.

2. Cost Bene�t Analysis Once a CEC approved designer analyzes the size system that you can install on your roof, we are able to provide a basic cost v’s bene�t analysis based on ‘averages’ for your situation.

3. Product SelectionThere are many di�erent product options available in Australia & as with all purchases di�erent products suit di�erent needs. Now Energy o�ers a range of products available Australia wide.

4. Project Management In all states of Australia there are varying regulations regarding the application, installation & commissioning of a solar power system. Now Energy o�ers project management of solar power systems & also provides support to clients that wish to manage their own project.

5. Financing The InvestmentThere are many �nancial products available to households & business, should they wish to install a solar power plant. Now Energy is accredited o�er products such as interest free & commercial equipment leasing / �nance.

6. Installation & Commissioning It is likely that both an accredited solar installer & your electricity utility will need to visit your property to install & commission a grid connect solar system. There are 4500 accredited solar installers throughout Australia. Acting as project manager Now Energy will provide a hassle free installation & commissioning service, or alternatively assist our clients to act as project manager.

7. Government Incentive ApplicationsMost grid connected solar installations in Australia are eligible to receive small scale technology certi�cates (STC’s). There certi�cates are valued as 1mw of renewable energy each (over 15yrs). A 1.5kW system will receive 30 certi�cates (3kW=60 etc.) These certi�cates are ultimately purchased by large energy users via ‘trading houses’ for $20-$40 each based on simple supply & demand principals. At Now Energy we o�er to purchase your STC’s as a point of sale discount, or can assist you to deal with a trading house directly.

8. Operations & MaintenanceWith small scale systems there is generally very little maintenance required, although very little still means that there is some. One of the easiest ways to ensure the uptime of your system is by installing a monitoring device. A monitoring device will alert someone if something was to go wrong. Now Energy o�ers monitoring services & also enables it’s clients to DIY if they wish.
