Why choose solar?
Did you know that an average solar system can pay for itself through your energy bill savings in four to six years?
Solar energy is clean, renewable, and reduces the electricity grid’s reliance on fossil fuels. By installing shared solar panels, your can lower your carbon footprint, reduce pollution, and set the standard for sustainability in Stonnington.
Solar for apartments
Most of our residents live in apartments. Achieving a Sustainable Stonnington is reliant on ‘greening’ this high-density housing. Owners corporations can now apply for Council subsidies of up to $400 per unit to install shared solar systems, helping their building reduce its carbon footprint and contribute to a greener future.
How does it work?
New technology allows for a fair split of solar power between apartment residents. Utilising an algorithm the technology monitors the solar power available and figures out where power is required. It also keeps a history of every tenant’s use and can be set to ensure the correct allocation of power is achieved.
Stonnington’s Solar Subsidies
This new subsidy program helps owners corporations install solar panels, making it affordable to transition to clean energy. In conjunction with State Government incentives these subsidies reduce upfront costs, making solar power more accessible for apartment buildings.
