The Story
Over $33,141 in estimated lifetime savings. That is what this Wellington Point household will see. We set them up with a 6.65kW solar system and an 18.1kWh battery. They now produce 100 percent of their own energy needs.
The system generates 9,778 kWh every year. That is plenty to handle heavy summer aircon use. The huge battery means they store all that subtropical sun for the evening. Energex peak rates will not bother them anymore.
The whole setup pays for itself in under 11 years. We also locked in $5,872 in government rebates for them.
“I wanted a new solar system with a battery and was recommended connect – but still got another couple of quotes. Grant did a much better job explaining my options than the other two companies – and i was pleasantly surprised that after this their quote was the most reasonable. On the day of the install Brett and his team arrived promptly, were respectful and a pleasure to have in the house and did a good job explaining the solar app before they left my house. Excellent work!”
This Wellington Point client came to us through a referral from friends we helped out earlier. We provided a highly competitive quote for the full system package. Our crew completed the installation in a single day with a strong focus on clean wiring and quality workmanship.
