FAQ - Renewable Solar Projects

The most common questions

How many solar panels do I need for my property?



This will depend on the size of the package you are after. When you get in touch with us we'll talk you through the options available and ensure you have enough roof space to accommodate your panels.

What are the benefits of going solar?



Lower electricity bills: One of the primary benefits of a residential solar system is that it can significantly lower your electricity bills. By generating your own energy from the sun, you can reduce your reliance on traditional electricity sources and save money on your monthly energy bills.
Increased property value: Homes with solar systems installed are generally more valuable than those without. Studies have shown that solar systems can increase a home's value by up to 4%.
Environmental benefits: Solar power is a clean, renewable source of energy that does not produce greenhouse gas emissions, unlike traditional energy sources. By switching to solar power, you can reduce your carbon footprint and help mitigate climate change.
Energy independence: With a solar system, you can generate your own power and become less dependent on the grid. This can be particularly advantageous during power outages or times of high demand when the grid may be overloaded.
Government incentives: In many areas, there are government incentives and tax credits available to homeowners who install solar systems. These incentives can help offset the cost of installation and make solar power a more affordable option.

Do the solar panels work on cloudy/rainy days?



While solar panels are most efficient in sunny conditions, they can still produce electricity in less than ideal weather conditions, making them a reliable and sustainable source of energy year-round.

Is my roof compatible with solar panels?



During the consultation stage we will inspect the type of roof you have (tile/colourbond etc), then quickly let you know the most suitable solution.

How long will my solar panels last?



The lifespan of solar panels can vary depending on a number of factors, such as the quality of the panels, the installation process, the climate, and the amount of maintenance it receives. At RSP we only work with the highest quality brands, those designed to last over many decades. Over time we recommend regular maintenance for maximum efficiency and durability.

Will the solar panels reduce my power bill?



Solar panels can save money for residential homeowners by generating electricity from the sun's energy, reducing their reliance on traditional electricity sources (the grid). With solar panels installed, you can produce your own electricity for use, offsetting the amount of energy from the grid. This often results in lower power bills and potential credits for excess electricity generated. Over time, the savings can add up, allowing you to recoup the initial solar investment and enjoy lower energy costs for decades to come.

Do you offer consultation for energy cost savings?



Yes, this is part of our consultation. We will review and assess your current power bill, explore expectations/budget then put forth our best recommendation.

Do you have warranty included with your services?



Yes, we have warranty on our products and installation by default. The warranty period will depend on the package selected. Our team will go over this in detail during our consultation.
