We are always getting asked questions about how solar panels are actually integrated into the home to supplement your electricity usage or to replace your energy provider.
Here are a few typical questions and our answers.
Question: Why are commercially available panels so expensive?
There are lots of reasons but principally it's because the market is still quite small and there isn't yet a really competitive marketplace. Government solar rebates help reduce costs.
Question: How do I connect my panel into my home wiring?
Unfortunately it's not quite that simple. Never attempt to connect the solar panel into your home wiring yourself unless you are a currently registered electrician. The solar panel is part of a system consisting of a controller, batteries and an inverter.
