The average home in the NT uses around 25kwh per day which would amount to a 

system just over 5kw’s worth, so in order to at least break even you would need a 

system of this size as a minimum which wold save approximately $2360.00 per 
annum. This figure is an estimation not taking into account shading issues and 
various other factors that affect the output of a solar system.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE

 

 

Maintaining a solar system is integral to the output as dust and bird droppings 
accumulate on the panels decreasing the output sometimes quite significantly, so it 
is in your best interest to schedule a clean of your panels. Because the optimum 
angle for solar panels is about 10 degrees, the panels build up with a lot of dust 
especially in the dry season when there is no rain to wash it away. Below is a 
schedule for your system maintenance.
