Back To Grid PV

Solar Energy NSW ‘Back to Grid’ PV systems convert sunlight directly into electricity via solar panel arrays mounted on the roof. They work any time the sun is shining, helping to reduce electricity bills, greenhouse gas emissions and assisting each household's contribution to reducing climate change.

When more power is produced than you need, the excess electricity can flow back to the grid, spinning your meter backwards and creating a credit against your bill!

Electricity generated your system works just like the electricity delivered by your local utility. The system connects directly to your utility panel or circuit breaker box, so it interfaces seamlessly with your utility power.

Many states have "feed in tariffs" which pay you multiple credits for each unit of electricity fed into the grid from your solar system.

You will be paid 20c/kWh for ALL the electricity you produce with your new solar panels.

While you generate the bulk of your own electricity during the peak hours of daylight and demand, your utility will seamlessly take over and continue to supply your electricity at night and on very cloudy days.
