Solar Energy for Commercial Use

Introduction

Solar energy has evolved from being an eco-friendly trend to a strategic decision for businesses. The article will explain the advantages of using solar energy for businesses, showing why it should be adopted.

Reducing Operational Costs

One of the most significant advantages of solar energy for businesses is the substantial reduction in operational costs. By generating their own electricity, companies can dramatically cut down on their utility bills. This saved capital. Increasing the sustainability of operations can lead to significant cost savings, allowing businesses to allocate more resources towards critical areas such as product development, employee benefits, and expansion.

Enhancing Sustainability

The utilization of solar energy not only reduces costs but also underscores a business’s commitment to sustainability. Installing solar panels on your premises shows that your company cares about the environment. This message is understood by your customers, partners, and stakeholders. This commitment can help enhance your brand’s reputation and attract consumers who prioritize sustainability.

Attracting Environmentally Conscious Customers

In today’s environmentally aware world, consumers are increasingly looking to support businesses that share their eco-conscious values. Harnessing solar energy shows your commitment to reducing carbon footprint, appealing to customers who support environmentally friendly and responsible businesses. Increase in sales and brand loyalty are potential outcomes of this.

Customizing Solar Solutions

Customizing Solar Solutions can be tailored to the unique energy needs of different businesses. Solar energy systems can be tailored to suit the energy needs of both small start-ups and big corporations, guaranteeing the production of an optimal amount of power for your operations.

Reducing Reliance on the Grid

Dependence on the grid can leave businesses vulnerable to power outages and price fluctuations. Solar energy is a dependable power source that reduces the need for the grid and provides consistent energy, even during times of high demand or bad weather

Energy Independence

Solar energy systems give businesses a degree of energy independence. They have control over their power production, which can be a significant advantage in regions with unreliable grid infrastructure.

Maintenance and Durability

Solar panels are low-maintenance and durable. Once installed, they require minimal upkeep, making them a hassle-free energy solution for businesses. This longevity ensures a stable and long-term source of power for your operations.

Environmental Impact

The use of solar energy has a positive environmental impact by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Businesses that use solar energy help make the environment cleaner and healthier. This benefit goes beyond just their own operations.

Installation and ROI

Understanding the installation process and return on investment is essential for businesses considering solar energy..

Conclusion

Solar energy is not just a green trend; it’s a smart business choice. Embracing solar power reduces operational costs, enhances sustainability, and attracts environmentally conscious customers. Moreover, it offers energy independence and has a positive impact on the environment. As businesses worldwide continue to prioritize sustainability and cost-efficiency, adopting solar energy solutions is a step in the right direction.

Just left us a 5 star review

For friendly, professional service, Sunshine Solar are top notch. We have had solar for sometime now and the effect on our power bill has been nothing short of amazing. Great follow up service from a great team. Thanks James and Hamish. We would highly recommend Sunshine solar.

Could not fault the company, from the start, advice was great. Even the after sales been good. The team throughout the company who we dealt with have been great. We are already noticing the difference with the savings using the system. Would highly recommend this company to anyone.

Best decision ever to have Solar Panels installed. Even happier that we went with Sunshine Solar, love that i could support a local supplier too. Amazing customer service and follow up service a year later. Panels are still looking and working fab ! Most importantly the cost savings have really impressed us, having months of not having to pay anything and being in credit over warmer months and significantly lower over colder months. Definitely worth the investment, loving the immediate returns.

You can trust the team at Sunshine Solar from planning to installation and followup. Very happy with my setup after over a year of use. Power bill much more acceptable 🙂

Awesome Company, Excellent products and very competitive on price , but customer service is next level. Thanks John and Team . Will definitely be back for the next build

Lovely customer service from Ruby and Harper. Exceptional savings!

We have had our Solar System in place for around 8 months now, and it has been a noticeable change in our month to month power. The install process was very easy, and the team onsite were also very professional and everything was left looking nice and tidy.

We had solar hot water panel and solar panels installed 2 years ago. They have reduced our power bill dramatically. We would like to thank sunshine solar for the service they provided when they were installed and the follow up we have just had. Fantastic service from a great company. Can highly recommend them to anyone thinking of solar. Cheers John

Very friendly people to deal with. Make it easy to install solar PV and solar hot water. Have great variety of options and can make it suit your needs.

Recommend Sunshine Solar For panels and for hot water. Their after sale service is great as well. We had solar hot water installed at our last build and proved to be a great investment. Our house now, we have 12 panels installed and also a great investment. So for anything solar, I would recommend Sunshine Solar.

Awesome service right from the get go. Then the follow up check in to ensure all is running well (which it is of course). The panels themselves are also great looking compared to most others, full black and sleek with extra warranty over comparables. Super impressed on all fronts and a great investment, thanks heaps Sunshine Solar!

They installed our system. Generally excellent service and the cost was competitive. We had an issue with our design… the planned inverter was a bit too small (we were right on the edge). When we raised the issue they sorted it out asap! The only cost was the difference between the inverter we had and the new one. I’d use them again.

I am very happy with the work done thanksand service they give

We had our 22 panel 3 phase solar panel system installed by sunshine sola a year ago, the pre installation benefits of solar were explained in detail.the installation was very professional by a knowledgeable team. Any post installation questions were answered promptly. A nice touch was sunshine solar calling this week to have a catch up to check everything is tracking as expected Would highly recommend Sunshine solar.

Sunshine solar installed our panels almost a year ago. Fantastic service and product. Love the savings on our power bills

When I decided to have solar panels installed and for Sunshine Solar to do it, I was very impressed that Chris who was doing the assessment endorsed my decision not to have a battery installed. As I wanted to go for a year without one just to see how the costs would go. There was no high pressure sales tactics applied. Even without the battery there is flexibility in using high use appliances through out the day. Previously I used the high use appliances on night rate. If you are prepared to pay major costs up front in the long term costs are cheaper with solar panels. I would recommend having solar panels installed by Sunshine Solar.

Great service from initial enquiry through to installation which was professional and efficient. Great personalized follow-up and customer support.

We had Sunshine Solar install our 10 panel system almost a year ago and we are very happy with it. Obviously especially in summer where our bill went from $130 Dec 2021 down to $42 in Dec 2022!! It's more even over winter but still a saving and great to be part of covering our own needs including charging a car. We appreciated the clear information from James and easy installation process. Follow up after install was also great. Thanks Sunshine Solar team

Sunshine Solar first assessed whether hot water only or full solar power generation was most suitable for my home. I appreciated that they didn't just try to sell me the more expensive system, but advised me that the hot water only made more economic sense for my small unit. They were flexible with me regarding the installation timeline and helpfully produced the extra documents I needed for getting a Good Energy loan from my bank. The installation went smoothly. I immediately noticed a savings as the hot water heating component was gone from my power bill. A year later they touched base again to make sure I'm happy with how it's going. I recommend getting in touch with them if you have questions about what system would work best for your place.

I was new to solar and Chris explained everything very simply and clearly. It has now been 12 months since our installation and it has surpassed my expectations! A trustworthy and expert team who have followed up twice to make sure I understand how everything works.

We are very happy with the level of service we have received before and after installation. We were kept informed every step of the process by the friendly and knowledgeable team including office staff.Always available to answer queries and help, knew their solar product and how it worked thoroughly. Helped with lining up an electrician who also was very informative and related companies to connect us with power. Already we can see the benefits and savings even though we have only had solar since the beginning of this year. We are definitely happy to recommend Sunshine to anybody who is thinking about getting solar installed at their place.Gary Sword

Easy to get a quote, which was accurate, installation went well, and friendly after service. I would recommend their service.

We had a 7.2kw, 18 panel, 5kw battery system installed last January. This system has exceeded our expectations and is performing as forecast in the Sunshine Solar quote. An unexpected outcome is a significant decrease in our energy usage due to being able to monitor our power consumption via the associated app which has resulted in an overall shorter pay back interval. The installers were on time and great to deal with. Speedy responses to post installation requests have resulted in system tweaks to maximise performance. We would recommend Sunshine Solar to anyone considering a home solar PV system.

Sunshine Sola was our company of choice after having been to the Home Show. John Wilson and his staff have many years of experience and built up years of knowledge. The staff are very approachable and we highly recommend them.

I can not recommend these folks enough from initial looking into solar and getting quote, to installation they even come and check system doing it's job. So good

We've had our system in for about 7 months now. Very happy with the level of service both before and after installation. It was installed when it was booked to go in and does exactly what we were told it would do. Sunshine were easy to deal with and easy to get hold of if you need to. A very friendly and approachable team. Definitely happy to recommend Sunshine to anyone thinking about getting solar installed at their place.

Sunshine solar were great to deal with. Great service and a great product. The install team were awesome and after sales was amazing.

We have had great service and would highly recommend. After a few months we would recommend Solar to anyone.

We installed an 8kw, 20 panel unit in January this year. I am very happy so far. The electricity savings are around $300 per month and that will mean a 12-15% return on our investment. Sunshine Solar also installed timers for our hot water cylinders and combined with a new power plan from Contact, the savings are substantial. I am thinking of installing 5 more panels set at a steeper angle to better utilise winter sun. I will be happy to get Sunshine Solar to do this job.
