How much can I save by installing solar panels in Auckland?2023-07-09T12:17:24+00:00

The amount of money you can save by installing solar panels in Auckland will depend on several factors, including the size of your system, the amount of electricity you use, and the cost of electricity in your area. On average, a solar panel system can offset anywhere from 50% to 90% of a household’s electricity usage.

For example, suppose a household in Auckland uses an average of 8,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per year and has a solar panel system with a capacity of 5 kilowatts (kW). In that case, they could save anywhere from $600 to $1,000 per year on their electricity bill. However, this is a rough estimate, and actual savings may vary.
It’s important to remember that savings made through generating your own power can offset the initial investment cost. Additionally, owning solar panels can increase the value of your home, which can be another source of savings.

What is the payback period for solar panels in Auckland?2023-07-09T12:17:04+00:00

The amount of time it takes a solar system to pay itself off depends on the size and quality of the system, as well as your local utility rates. Depending on your solar system size, a Simply Solar system can pay itself off in as little as 5 years. On average, the payback period for a residential solar panel system in Auckland is around 7-10 years. This means that the savings on electricity bills over this period will cover the cost of the initial investment in the solar panels.

It’s important to note that this is just a rough estimate, and the actual payback period may be shorter or longer depending on the specific details of a particular installation. If you are considering installing solar panels, it’s a good idea to get a professional assessment to determine the best system for your needs and to get a more accurate estimate of the payback period.

How much does a solar panel system cost for a business?2023-07-09T12:16:48+00:00

Keep in mind that the cost of a commercial solar panel system is typically higher than that of a residential system due to the larger size of the system and the added complexity of the electrical work involved. Our expert solar team can provide an accurate cost estimate for your specific needs and circumstances. The cost of a solar panel system may be offset over time by the savings on your electricity bills, so it is important to consider the long-term financial benefits when making your decision.
