What is Special About Solar in the Sunshine Coast?

In the past ten years, energy prices have increased by more than 117% in Australia. This is due to the lack of competition among retailers and poor policy from the Federal Government. In general, retailers use convoluted pricing structures to confuse consumers and make price comparison among retailers difficult. Furthermore, price comparison sites are defaulted to promote the highest fees paid to the retailer rather than savings to the consumer. Despite rising pressure from the Federal Government, retailers continue to mislead customers.

So how can one escape the power of Australian energy providers?

The answer is with Solar Energy.

For centuries, scientists have known that the sun can be used to produce energy. Solar panels were invented 60 years ago, since then, solar panel efficiency has continued to dramatically improve overtime and continually push new limits annually. 

The cost of going solar has continually decreased for property owners over time. Since 2010, the cost of solar panels has decreased by 89%. In addition to continual price drops, solar panels improve each and every year, becoming more efficient, while being less expensive, and more cost-effective. 

Homeowners looking to install solar panels can qualify for government rebates and subsidies, with some eligible households receiving up to half of their initial solar installation costs back, making solar an economically viable solution. In fact, the council is able to obtain a majority of their energy through solar systems. Utilizing solar panels does not limit where homes can be located, as Solar Panels can be installed on any home, at any location.

However, many customers purchase solar panels based on price, not the quality of the panels or the impact solar panels will have on their energy bill.  In an ideal world, energy bills would go to zero, but this is rarely attainable with cheaper solar panels that are marketed and promoted in deals. Unfortunately, many solar panels that were on the lower end of the scale a decade ago are already in need of being replaced. Working with Ampulse Energy allows you, the consumer, to build a package with solar panels that fit your energy needs and bring down your energy bill.

Solar panels convert light from the sun into electricity, allowing you to use power generated from a free and endless source of energy in your home or business. Living in Queensland, we are fortunate to have sunny days almost all year round. So with the right solar system, your electricity generation may be more than you actually use. Ampulse Energy will assist you in selecting and installing the right solar PV system for your electrical needs. Invest in solar energy today, and see returns within just 3 to 4 years.
