Why Solar Electricity?

Solar electricity is about the future as well as the present. With unlimited potential, Solar Energy is a clean, efficient, and sustainable form of renewable energy. But Solar Energy is also a sound financial decision. With Solar panels powering your home, you'll see this every time your electricity bill arrives. Finally, Solar Energy is a green decision - you'll feel good knowing that you will leave the world a greener, better place for your children.

With solar power there is no fuel price volatility unlike fossil and nuclear fuels. Although there is variability in the amount of sunlight over the day and year, a properly sized and configured system can be designed for high reliability while providing a long term, fixed price electricity supply.

With no moving parts solar power is one of the most reliable forms of electricity generation and is environmentally benign. Solar cells generate electricity without air or water emissions, noise, vibration, habitat impact or waste generation.

Unlike other renewable resources such as hydroelectric and wind power, solar electricity can be utilised anywhere there is sunlight and directly where the power will be used. As a result, solar power limits the expense of and energy losses associated with transmission and distribution from largescale electric plants to the end users.

Peak energy generation from solar power also corresponds with peak energy consumption of consumers in summer from the electricity grid. Maximum sunlight hours generally correspond with peak electricity demand when prices are highest.
