Frequently Asked Questions
How do solar panels work?
Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity through photovoltaic cells that generate a direct current (DC). An inverter then converts DC into alternating current (AC) used in your home or business.
What is the typical payback period for a solar installation?
The payback period is calculated and varies based on factors like location, energy consumption, and available incentives. Generally, it ranges from 3 to 5 years for domestic systems, and 2 to 3 years for commercial systems, with continued savings for the life of the system, typically 25 years or more.
Is regular maintenance required for solar panels?
Regular maintenance involves occasional cleaning and inspection to ensure optimal performance. Cleaning can depend on your location and local conditions, but semi-annual to annual checks are often sufficient. Yes we do that too! Enquire today.
Can I sell excess energy back to the grid?
Many regions allow for net metering or feed-in tariffs, which enable you to sell excess energy back to the grid. The specific regulations and rates vary by location, so it’s best to check with your local utility company.
What is the lifespan of a solar panel system?
Solar panels have a lifespan of 25 years or more, with most systems still operating at around 80% efficiency after 25 years. Inverters may need replacement after 10-15 years, but this is a cost-effective upgrade compared to replacing the entire system.
How can a solar system benefit my commercial business?
Solar systems can significantly reduce your energy costs, providing long-term savings. They also demonstrate your commitment to sustainability, which can be a valuable marketing and branding asset.
What is the typical installation time for a commercial solar system?
The installation time can vary depending on the size and complexity of the system. Generally, it ranges from a few weeks to a few months. Our team will work closely with your business to minimize disruptions during the installation process.
Are there tax incentives or financial incentives available for commercial solar installations?
Yes, many regions offer tax credits, incentives, and grants to businesses that invest in solar energy. These can substantially reduce the upfront costs of installation. It’s recommended to consult with our experts or a tax professional to explore the available incentives for your specific location.
Are solar panels reliable in bad weather conditions?
Solar panels are designed to withstand various weather conditions, including rain, snow, and hail. They are tested to meet international standards for durability. Additionally, the presence of snow or rain can often enhance performance by cleaning the panels.
What if I have limited space for solar panels?
Solar systems can be tailored to fit the available space, even on rooftops with limited square footage. Advanced panel technology and efficient designs allow for maximum energy production within constrained spaces.
I'm concerned about the upfront cost. How can I finance a solar installation?
Many financing options are available, including solar loans, leases, and power purchase agreements (PPAs). Not to mention the currnet govement solar rebates! These options can make it more affordable to switch to solar while enabling you to start saving on energy costs from day one. Our experts can help you explore the most suitable financing solution for your needs.
Client Testimonials
“Keith was so good, went way above what was expected of him to do & also came back several times to check on us & to fill us in about what was happening with electrical supply being restored after flooding. I can’t thank him enough & would recommend Keith to attend to your property.”
“I have been using Keith and his team since my wife and I retired to Bonny Hills from Sydney. Keith only employs the best tradies from the area to work for him and the quality of their work is outstanding. Whenever I have called Keith for advice on a job, he has provided detailed information and alternatives which has allowed for us to make sound cost effective decisions for work to be commissioned at our house. If you need a great electrician and solar installer, give Keith from Hastings Solar and Electrical a call. You will not be disappointed.”
“What a great company to deal with. Very professional, on time and friendly. Jake and his team explained the different alternatives to me including the pros and cons and then came up with the installation plan. Having had previous bad experiences, Hastings Solar was a breath of fresh air. I would highly recommend them.”
