HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST SOLAR PANELS FOR HOME AND BUSINESS: A Guide by Suzlon Solar

If you’re one of the many Australians considering solar panels to cut energy costs, it’s essential to make the right choice for your home or business. Suzlon Solar, with its Clean Energy Council (CEC) approval and extensive experience in national solar panel installation, is here to guide you through the process. Here’s a comprehensive guide to help you select the ideal solar panels:

Solar Panel Size: Tailoring to Your Needs

Selecting the right solar panel size is crucial for reducing your reliance on the costly Australian power grid while meeting your energy demands effectively. It’s not just about the size of the panels; it’s about the system’s power output. Here’s a breakdown of suitable solar panel sizes for different scenarios:

• Small to Medium Households: With one to four occupants, annual energy consumption typically ranges from 7,500 to 7,665 kilowatt-hours (kWh). For these households, a 5-kilowatt system is often sufficient.

• Larger Households: If your household has four to six people, your yearly energy consumption may be around 9,500 to 10,500 kWh, making a 6.6-kilowatt system a practical choice.

• Small Businesses and Larger Households: For households with more than six residents or small businesses, usually requiring about 14,900 to 15,330 kWh annually, a 20-kilowatt solar panel system is a valuable investment.

• Small Businesses with Over 10 Employees: Businesses with roughly 10 employees and plans for expansion should consider a 30-kW system. Similarly, small businesses with more than 10 employees often benefit from a 30-kilowatt commercial solar panel system to meet their growing energy needs.

• Medium-Sized Businesses and Organizations: Businesses and not-for-profit organizations of average size need substantial power to serve their operations and customers. For these commercial applications, we recommend a 50-kilowatt system.

• Large Businesses and Manufacturing Facilities: Large enterprises and factories consume a significant number of kilowatt-hours annually. To cater to their demands, a 100-kilowatt system is usually the most suitable option.

Quality Standards: Ensuring Reliability and Longevity

Long-term reliability is essential when considering solar panels. To guarantee that your system meets Government standards and endures all weather conditions, look for the following quality standards:

• CEC Accreditation: Opt for a solar power system and installer with CEC accreditation, ensuring eligibility for small-scale technology certificates.

• Quality Materials: Choose a system crafted from high-quality materials, capable of withstanding Australia’s harsh climate. Solar panels must endure wind, heat, and torrential rains, making resilience crucial.

• Extended Warranties: A solar power system is a significant investment, and Suzlon Solar recommends systems with at least a 25-year performance warranty to ensure maximum longevity. Additionally, insist on a 10-year installation warranty to safeguard against workmanship issues. Suzlon Solar proudly offers solar panel systems with warranties valid for a minimum of 25 years, coupled with a 10-year workmanship guarantee.
