How was your last energy bill?

Don’t ask?

Yes, it’s a frustrating fact that electricity costs are ever-rising and will continue to increase substantially into the future, which means we’re always looking for money-saving options when it comes to our energy bills. 

Is solar still an energy-efficient option?

Solar energy is actually the leading, low-cost energy solution in Australia, despite the common misconception that rebates are no longer available.  In fact, with the right advice, there are several rebates and offers to take advantage of, potentially saving you as much as 30-40% on your domestic solar panel installation.

At Nepean Solar Solutions, we’re here to help you understand the benefits of solar energy and to give you expert advice.   We take the time to learn about your current energy system, your electricity usage and what it costs, and we design a system that’s tailored to suit your needs and budget. 

We service the greater Penrith region from Richmond to Camden, the lower Blue Mountains to Blacktown, and because we’re the leading residential solar installation business in the area, you’ll be working with an Australian-owned, local business. 

We help you make the smart energy choice for your home.

The owner of the business, Jim Hill is a long term resident of Penrith/St Mary’s and has strong ties with-in the community having established an electrical contracting business in 1989 and has trained well over 40 apprentices through to their successful graduation into the trade.

Jim has found that there is a lack of local content in the Solar PV market and a lot of confusion of rebates, costs and proper compliance of the individual proposals. 

Many companies that offer installations never visit your home, they often simply use unqualified/un-accredited salespeople to complete the sale, and they design your installation using Google Maps or Near Maps and then subcontract the installation using subcontractors. 

Nepean Solar Solutions point of difference is that you ring their local Penrith telephone number and you will speak to the owner himself. He will then meet you at your home and design a solution to suit your requirements and your budget. 

He will personally arrange the delivery and installation of your system and will oversee the installation ensuring a quality solution every time. Jim will personally guarantee all installations and backs this up with his personal mobile and office telephone number on all marketing.

Based on the results of our 2010 survey of households in the Blue Mountains, Illawarra and Sydney, we know that larger households tend to use more electricity than smaller ones. Typically:

• Households with 1-2 residents use about 1,400 kWh of electricity per quarter
• Households with 3-4 residents use about 2,100 kWh of electricity per quarter, and
• Households with 5 or more residents use at least 2,700 kWh of electricity per quarter.

Further, residents of freestanding houses tend to use more electricity than residents of semi-detached dwellings and flats, and the more energy-intense appliances a household of any type has – such as air conditioners, refrigerators, dishwashers and swimming pools – the more electricity it uses.

A simple 5kw Solar PV System installed at your home will produce approximately 20kw/h of electricity per day meaning with sensible power management you could find that you have paid for the system with-in 3 years with the ongoing benefits for many years to come.
