FAQs
What makes your solar installations in Newcomb innovative compared to traditional systems?
Our installations utilise the latest high-efficiency photovoltaic (PV) panels, smart inverters with real-time monitoring, and modular battery storage. We design each system using advanced software that models your roof orientation, shading, and energy profile to maximise output. This data-driven approach, combined with cutting-edge hardware, delivers greater energy harvest, faster payback periods, and future-ready compatibility with emerging technologies like EV chargers and virtual power plants.
How do you ensure the quality and safety of the electrical work involved?
All work is completed by Clean Energy Council (CEC)–accredited electricians who follow Australian Standards AS/NZS 3000 (Wiring Rules) and AS 4777 (Grid Connection of Energy Systems). We conduct comprehensive site assessments, issue detailed Safe Work Method Statements (SWMS), and perform triple-layer testing—insulation resistance, polarity, and performance verification—before handover. Every installation is supplied with a Certificate of Electrical Safety and is lodged with Energy Safe Victoria for audit compliance.
Can a solar system be tailored to my specific energy usage and future growth plans?
Yes. We start with a 12-month interval data analysis of your consumption to size the array precisely for current needs while allowing scalable add-ons. Our modular design philosophy means extra panels or batteries can be added later without re-wiring. We also integrate hybrid inverters that can seamlessly switch between grid, solar, and storage, ensuring your system grows alongside household changes such as electric vehicle adoption or home expansions.
What warranties and after-sales support do you offer for Newcomb residents?
You receive a 25-year performance warranty on panels, 10-12 years on inverters (extendable to 20), and 5 years on workmanship, backed by our local service team. We provide complimentary system health checks at 12 and 24 months, plus a lifetime monitoring portal where you can track performance. Should issues arise, our Geelong-based technicians guarantee on-site response within 3 business days and remote troubleshooting within 24 hours.
How do you help customers finance their solar investment?
We partner with Green Loans Australia to offer zero-interest terms up to 24 months and low-rate loans up to 7 years. We also manage the Victorian Solar Homes rebate process, including paperwork for upfront rebates and Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) to reduce your purchase price. A typical 6.6 kW system in Newcomb can see net costs drop by 30–40 % after incentives, with bill savings often covering loan repayments from day one.
What environmental impact can I expect by installing solar with your company?
A standard 6.6 kW system generates roughly 9,500 kWh annually in Newcomb, offsetting about 9 tonnes of CO₂ each year—the equivalent of planting over 230 trees or taking two petrol cars off the road. We also recycle 100 % of packaging and decommissioned panels through PV-specific recycling programs, further reducing lifecycle impacts. By joining our customer network, you contribute to community-wide carbon reduction and gain access to local sustainability workshops and energy-sharing initiatives.
