Did you know Australia has the highest average solar radiation per square metre of any continent in the world? And with the NSW Government committed to having net zero emissions by 2050, now is the time to consider switching to solar.
Installing and connecting a solar panel and battery system has many benefits to both homeowners and business owners. Not only can installing solar power reduce energy bills, but a solar system also helps consumers become energy independent. In addition, solar power is much better for the environment, and a solar system will add value to your property with little ongoing maintenance.

Renewable Power Incentives
There are solar rebates available from both state and federal governments, designed to help with the costs of purchasing and installing a solar and battery system. Once your system is set up, you can also sell some of your electricity back into the grid.
Find out more about the NSW Government’s solar initiatives, or you can search for both federal and state government rebates on the Federal Government’s rebates and assistance page.
Simmark can provide you with more information about which solar financial incentives apply to your system during our initial consultation.
Feed-In Tariffs
Feed-in-tariffs are aimed at encouraging consumers to adopt renewable energy technologies and become more energy-efficient.
While feed-in tariffs vary by retailer and location, there is a benchmark rate set at 4.6 to 5.5 cents per kWh. It’s worth shopping around between retailers because what you earn back will depend on your rate, your plan and how much energy you’re feeding back into the grid.
