The Case for Commercial Solar Energy Systems

During 2011 and 2012 solar energy systems (particularly Commercial Solar Energy Systems) have significantly reduced in price. This presents both small and large businesses with a unique opportunity.

Combine this with rising electricity prices and substantially reduced capital costs, the case for installing a Commercial Solar solar energy system is now very compelling.

A number of factors will go into determining the investment returns of a Commercial Solar energy system for business include:

• What is your business’s daily energy usage load profile.
• What types of government incentives are available STCs, LGC, CTIP.
• The cost of electricity currently paid (including any peak network charges) This may vary depending on the amount of electricity used by your business.
• The expected rate of increase in price of electricity over the coming years.
• How much electricity the solar energy system will generate per day – this is driven by your location in Australia and the time of year (i.e. summer, autumn winter, spring, sunny day, partly cloudy day and your location in Australia.
• How much of this Solar Electricity production can be utilised by the company in-house and how much will be sold to the grid.
