Government incentives
Solar incentives through the federal government and Solar Victoria
Under the federal government’s Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES), households and small businesses across Australia may be able to receive a benefit to help with purchase cost when installing a small scale renewable energy system, including solar systems. The benefit value you receive will depend on several factors, including the location you live in, the installation date, and the amount of electricity the system creates.
The Victorian government is also offering solar panel and battery rebates to allow eligible households in the state to invest in a good quality solar system that is safe, efficient and durable.
Feed-in tariffs is another way that helps you make money off your solar system, as you get paid for feeding surplus electricity back into the grid.
To understand these solar rebates and incentives better and to find out how they can help you enjoy the benefits of solar power, get in touch with Total Solar Solutions today.

Return on investment
Solar power offers a great return on investment
When looking for a solar system for your home, it is worth comparing the return on investment with the life-span of the solar system. For example, the return on investment for quality solar system maybe 3 years longer than the return on investment on an inferior system however when you compare the savings over the lifetime of the system you will often find that the quality system will perform for 10 years longer essentially saving you more money for longer (and help us send less solar products to landfill!)
The savings will depend on your normal energy consumption and the size of your home, the quality of your solar PV systems as well as the quality of the installation.
Hence, it is important to find a trusted and certified company to work with when it comes to installing solar panels.
Total Solar Solutions is a Clean Energy Council Approved Solar Retailer, and our company is regularly audited by the CEC to ensure we are meeting or exceeding industry and CEC standards.

How much can you save?
How much can you save with solar power in Melbourne?
Finding the right balance between solar system size and consumption is essential to keep your return on investment timelines as short as possible. If your system is too small, you’ll have to top up from the grid, and if it’s too large, then the amount you can sell back to the grid might not be financially viable.
Speak to our experience team today, and let us design the system that would work best for you.

How you will benefit from using solar panels in Melbourne?
Solar power has grown in popularity in Australia recently, due to improved technology, the rising costs of electricity, and general awareness of clean energy. Plus, the beautiful Aussie sun and climate makes it one of the best solar energy resources in the world, and you should take advantage of that!
If you’re still thinking if it is worth getting, consider the many benefits to using solar power, including:
Lower electricity bills
By generating your own electricity through your solar panels, you’ll be able to reduce your electricity bills. Although, how much you actually save will ultimately depend on the size of your solar system as well as your power usage.
Energy independence
Solar panels help you reduce your reliance on electricity providers, which in turn increases your control over your own energy needs and expenses. Solar systems are especially beneficial to remote homes and buildings that are not connected to power grids.
Renewable and reliable energy source
One of the biggest benefits of solar PV systems is that they use a renewable source of energy. Unlike coal or gas, we will never run out of sunlight. As long as the sun is up in the sky, your solar panels will generate electricity.
Good for the environment
Because the electricity is generated from sunlight instead of burning fossil fuels, solar systems do not leave behind greenhouse gases and water pollution. Save money and save the environment at the same time.
Low maintenance
Solar panels generally do not need a lot of maintenance, as there are no moving parts in them. All that is required is occasional cleaning and a regular check by licensed contractors to ensure the panels continue to run safely and at maximum efficiency. And perhaps an inverter replacement after about 5 to 10 years.

Frequently asked questions
How do I organise a quote for solar power to be installed?
We can organise an informative quote that explains how the solar panels work, rebate options and a site-specific full system design. Please call us today.
Are the solar panels and inverters tested for quality to both Australian standards?
At Total Solar Solutions Australia we focus on using quality solar panels and inverters. All products are listed on the Clean Energy Council approved products list and suitable for Australian conditions.
Are solar panels covered under warranty?
Yes, Total Solar Solutions uses only quality solar panels that are covered by manufacturers in Australia. Solar PV panels generally have 2 warranties, performance warranty and product warranty. These two warranties are not always the same and it is important that you research both warranties.
How long does an installation take?
Installation for a solar PV system varies greatly as each home is different. This is usually discussed with our team during the proposal and site-inspection process. A majority of the time an installation will be 1 day however if it is a 2 day installation for a larger or more complex system we will advise you at the time of booking the installation. There are also occasions where wet weather makes it unsafe for us to complete the work on the roof and on the rare occasion this happens we will communicate directly with the customer to arrange a suitable date to return.
