Solar credit scheme:
Now is the best time to invest in solar! The Federal Minister for Climate Change and Energy Efficiency, Greg Combet, announced that that from July 1, 2011 the solar credit scheme multiplier will decrease from 5 to 4, significantly reducing the upfront discount you will receive. This means that the rebate for a typical 1.5kW system will be cut from $5000 to $6200 for Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth.
Solar is at its most affordable stage so you must act now to secure the highest possible discount off the installation of a solar system. To purchase a solar panel system now, or to find out more information, call one of our solar specialists on 1300 22 23 24.
