Solar power is power created by converting energy from the sun into electricity. Solar panels are made up of photovoltaic cells sandwiched between semiconducting materials, like silicon. These cells are energised when directly hit by photons from the sun’s rays. Such energisation is known as the photoelectric effect and creates the current necessary to produce electrical power. The current is then passed through an inverter to make an alternating current, which can be used in your home or business.
There are several advantages of solar power for home and business owners, including:
Otherwise known as a grid-tied system, an on-grid solar system refers to a PV system that connects to the utility grid. This is a standard installation in homes and businesses that are connected to the grid but still want to reduce their energy bills or carbon footprint. The alternating current produced from this solar generation system is routed to the utility grid where it is then used to energise appliances on a day-to-day basis throughout the home or business.
By comparison, off-grid systems operate independently from the national grid. This type of solar generation system is suitable for property owners that want to be completely self-sufficient or who can’t connect to the grid. Off-grid systems are usually designed to generate excess electricity which can then be stored in a battery for later usage, such as at night-time or on cloudy days.
Being independent of the utility grid means that off-grid solar users are not affected by power outages or failures. Also, no energy bill is generated for those operating off-grid. This is because they do not rely on energy providers in any capacity to produce electricity.
As mentioned, off-grid solar systems usually have an additional battery system in place. A solar battery is necessary to allow a home or business to continue to benefit from solar energy even after the sun goes down. These battery devices charge throughout the day as the solar panels generate excess energy which is directed to them. This means that, rather than losing out on all available solar power, it’s stored in solar batteries for use at a later time or date.

This is one of the most pressing questions when considering the switch to solar. In almost all cases, moving over to solar power for your property helps reduce energy bills significantly. This is because you lower the amount of energy you need from the grid as you’re generating your own through solar panels. Moreover, you can actually sell excess power to the grid to further lower any bills.
Your payback period for solar systems varies depending on how big the system is, how it’s utilised and the price you’ll receive as part of the feed-in tariff. With that said, a good rule of thumb is that you can expect a standard household solar system to pay for itself after around three years of usage.
No. It is illegal to complete electrical installations without a licence in Queensland. To install a safety switch, you need to call a licensed team. They will ensure safety at your property and help your home or business run smoothly.
Registered electricians can self-certify their electrical work, provided that testing is conducted at all stages. Throughout the design and installation process, there are a series of checks and balances required by professional electricians.
You need to consider a range of factors, including heating method, storage, continuous flow, cost and energy efficiency. Whether you want instantaneous hot water from a gas system or the low installation cost of an electrical system, a licensed hot water team can assist you in making this decision.
Structured cabling is the term used for a precisely designed cabling system that’s integrated for efficiency. For cabling infrastructure to be considered structured, it needs to meet a set of industry standards.
