Summer is a busy time for solar. It creates more electricity than usual during the summer months, which means you'll save the most money on your energy bill - which is wonderful news because the holiday season may also be a period when household expenses skyrocket.
So, with peak solar season finally here, this issue is all about the things you can do to save as much money as possible with your solar panels.
Don't have solar on your rooftop? Check if you are eligible for a $1,400 rebate and a $1,400 interest-free loan to offset the upfront installation costs of switching to solar.
The timing is everything when it comes to making the most of your solar system. The more energy you can shift to the daytime when the sun is shining, the more money you can save on energy costs.
So, consider pre-cooling your home on hot afternoons when the sun is still shining. You may set a timer on some cooling systems. If your home is well-insulated, you will enjoy a beautiful cool home without having to pay peak energy prices in the evening - a win-win situation!
