Commercial & Residential Solar Panels Kyneton
There are close to 1,500 small-scale solar power installations in Kyneton and the number is quickly growing. There is no end in sight to the constantly increasing electricity prices but you can cut down on your electricity bills with the help of solar power. Solar power has become increasingly affordable, especially with the federal and state government rebates in addition to the feed-in tariff.Â
Depending on the available space, you can install enough solar panels to generate enough solar electricity for your own needs. In addition, any excess solar power can be exported to the grid and that should also fetch you a decent amount of money. Solar power has the potential to bring down your electricity costs significantly and you also get to play your part in keeping the planet green.
Gone are the days when solar panels were inefficient and required constant maintenance. Modern solar panels are not only cheaper but require no maintenance (except cleaning once in a while). These are also much more efficient which means modern solar panels are capable of generating more electricity from the same area compared to the earlier models.
Macedon Ranges Solar Power has been active in the solar power industry for over a decade. We have installed hundreds of systems for homes as well as businesses. We create a customised plan for every solar installation in order to capture the maximum solar power potential in that location.

Therefore, here is what you should know about choosing the best solar panels for your Kyneton solar panel installation:
Accredited & Approved: Make sure you buy solar panels from a solar panel installer that has been accredited and approved by Clean Energy Council. You should know that not every solar panel retailer is on the approved list as retailers need to adhere to tough compliance regulations. In addition, they also have to face integrity and financial checks by a third party. Macedon Ranges Solar Power is an accredited and approved solar panel retailer and installer.
After Sales Service: Huge demand for solar panels has led to a huge increase in the number of solar panel installers since 2011 but almost a third of those retailers and installers do not exist any longer. If you work with a company that is not likely to be in business after a few years, you canât expect any kind of after-sales support if things donât work out as expected. Macedon Ranges Solar Power has been in business for more than 10 years. We are known for reliability and timely after-sales support.
Type of Solar Panel: While there is a huge selection of solar panels available for sale, the most popular options remain the polycrystalline and monocrystalline panels. Monocrystalline panels are more energy-efficient but expensive in comparison. The difference in efficiency isnât usually worth the extra cost unless you are installing hundreds of panels.
Accessories: When you are choosing a solar panel retailer and installer, make sure you choose someone that offers all the related accessories such as a solar battery, various options for solar inverters, smart meters and other such things. Macedon Ranges Solar Power offers the best quality solar power accessories, at the best price.Â
