Solar is a great investment in Queensland due to its high levels of sunshine, which maximizes energy production. The state offers various incentives and rebates, making the initial cost more affordable. Additionally, solar panels can significantly reduce electricity bills and increase property value.
Queensland has significant solar power generation capacity - it's not called the 'Sunshine State' for nothing! The amount of power produced by solar panels in Queensland varies depending on factors such as weather conditions, time of year, and the total installed solar capacity.
In Queensland, solar panels typically produce between 4 to 6 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per day per installed kilowatt (kW) of solar capacity, depending on factors like panel orientation, shading, and weather conditions. For a standard residential system of around 5 kW, this can mean generating 20 to 30 kWh per day. This level of production can significantly offset electricity costs, especially in a sunny state like Queensland.
The cost of solar panels in QLD depends on your system size, which will be determined by different factors such as your current energy bill and usage, as well as your roof size and budget.
Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) are a federal government incentive in which homeowners receive certificates for the solar energy their system will generate over a set period. These certificates can then be sold to help offset the upfront cost of installing solar panels. To find out if you qualify for this incentive, please contact our team.
