Solar energy storage works by adding a battery to the solar system installed on the home. There are two primary reasons homeowners want solar energy storage-
A Solar P.V. System can easily last from 20 to 25 years and can even work for a more extended if appropriately maintained.
The interconnection switch separates the solar panel system from the electric grid. It cannot be activated until your local utility company authorizes the contractor that the electric meter is set up for Net Metering.
Solar panels are made from Silicon, and particular products can last at least 25 years if properly maintained. Going Solar offers premium solar products that come with a 25-year warranty.
You will only need a battery to store solar energy if you opt for an off-grid or stand-alone solar system.
If your shed has a good solid structure like a hardwood frame or C-channel steel. It also needs to have power in the form of a sub-mains by looking for a small distribution board mounted inside.

The age of your home can determine if you need a new switchboard or meter. The Going Solar team will investigate and advise during a free home-site consultation.
Solar thermal systems use the direct heat obtained from the sun to heat water, whereas solar power utilizes sunlight to produce electricity.
The only way to store solar power (generated during the day) for use at night, without reverting to the grid, is via battery storage. Our team can provide extensive information about the pros and cons of battery storage.
Grid connect systems use solar-generated power and only source additional power from the grid when needed.
An off-grid or stand-alone system is when you store all the energy your panels produce
and don't access the grid at all. A battery is required to reserve solar-generated energy.
In short, yes! Momentumenergy.com.au estimates the increase in retail value at just under $6000 per kilowatt of solar energy. This means if you install 5kW worth of solar panels, it could add an additional $29,000 onto its current price! Origin Energy and RealEstate.com.au state that 57% of homeowners in Australia say that they would willingly pay up to $10,000 more to buy a house equipped with solar.
A grid-connected system for a medium-size family typically costs between $1,000 - $2,500 per K.W. To obtain a no-obligation, free quote, get in touch with the Going Solar team.

The size of a Solar System is determined by the size of your home, orientation, and the amount of energy you use. The team at Going Solar are experts in this area and will advise the best system to suit your needs.
Every Solar system we install is custom designed to match the home's unique size, shape, and roof dimensions. The amount of space needed depends on the size of the system being installed, which dictates the number of panels required. Going Solar is well equipped to tackle all roof types with in-house system designers.
Switching to solar renewable energy will save you hundreds of your electricity bills, add value to your home, reduce your carbon footprint and help to build a cleaner future for generations to come.

When there is a black out, a home with a grid-connected solar system will also be without power. By law grid-connected solar systems must be shut down if the grid loses power. This is to ensure the linesman can repair any faults safely.
Solar hot water systems, sometimes called solar thermal systems, use the direct heat from the sun to heat water, whereas solar power uses sunlight to produce electricity.

A feed-in tariff is a small credit rebate received for any excess electricity produced by a solar system. If you have a grid-connected solar system, power produced must be immediately used, or it will feed into the shared electricity grid for other properties to use.
For each kilowatt-hour (kWh) of electricity exported to the grid, that property will receive a feed-in tariff of a few cents, usually between 7 and 16 cents per kWh.
The Going Solar team will calculate the exact amount of savings you can expect as part of your FREE quote. On average, solar power systems reduce power bills by up to 80% and eliminate completely, depending on the type and size of the installed system.
A state government rebate for Solar is available for homes (up to $1,400) and businesses (up to $3,500). To learn more, visit Solar Victoria
To determine your eligibility, visit Solar Victoria. For homeowners, critical eligibility criteria include combined household taxable income of less than $180,000, and your property is valued at under $3 million.

Yes, solar energy helps you save money, but it also depends on how much energy you consume, which will affect how much you save. The more solar power you use during the day, the greater the returns, reducing your overall reliance on the energy grid and fossil fuels.
North-facing panels are the ideal position for generating power consistently throughout the day. East facing panels result in most of your power generation produced in the mornings. West-facing panels capture the afternoon sun.
Rooftop solar systems can be installed on most commercial, industrial, warehouse, retail, and agricultural facilities. Your roof will be reviewed for suitability before finalizing a system plan.
The factors that impact expected output are the layout for your building roof, system size, and how the panels are oriented toward the sun. Your energy demand and your local utility rates are just some of the factors that will determine your total savings.

Generating electricity from solar panels produces no greenhouse gases whatsoever, which helps to reduce the effect of climate change. When solar energy is powering a home or business, there is no burning of fuel and no emissions from energy production.
Any excess electricity you generate may be helpful to others in your community; bi-directional meters are installed to allow for Net Metering. Net Metering is the process of providing a credit for any excess electricity your business' solar power system produces and delivers to the power grid.
The interconnection switch separates the solar panel system from the electric grid. It cannot be activated until your local utility company authorizes the contractor that the electric meter is set up for Net Metering.
Technically speaking, yes, if batteries are used. But practically, if grid power is available, it is recommended to use solar in combination with the grid.
Solar thermal systems use the direct heat obtained from the sun to heat water, whereas solar power utilizes sunlight to produce electricity.
The only way to store solar power (generated during the day) for use at night, without reverting to the grid, is via battery storage. Our team can provide extensive information about the pros and cons of battery storage.
Panels should be cleaned from mold, dirt, and bird droppings ideally every six to twelve months. It is recommended to have your Solar System checked every couple of years to keep performance at its peak. Contact us to arrange a professional maintenance check.
Most home and business insurance companies will cover the solar power electric system as part of your insurance policy. This addition to your policy should not increase the premium in many cases.
Warranties come with all Going Solar systems and range from 10 years to 25 years, depending on the chosen solar product.
Yes, you can upgrade your existing solar system. Contact us to learn how we can help you achieve a seamless upgrade.
Solar panels still work on cloudy days and when it rains; however, the generated power is reduced.
A Solar P.V. System doesn't require direct sunlight to work, though direct sunlight gives the maximum efficiency. The system continues to work even during the overcast conditions, but its efficiency might reduce to some extent.
Net Metering is the system that utilities use to credit solar energy system owners for the electricity produced by their solar panels. With Net Metering, you only pay for the electricity that you use beyond what your solar panels can generate.
kW stands for kilowatt; it is a measurement of power. A kilowatt is 1,000 watts. kWh stands for kilowatt-hour; it is the measurement of energy.
A solar battery storage unit will help you store the solar energy you generate from your solar system. With a solar battery, any of the excess energy that your solar system produces during the day that you do not use will be stored in a battery unit instead of being exported to the grid.
Technically speaking, yes, if batteries are used. But practically, if grid power is available, it is recommended to use solar in combination with the grid.
