When your business decides to invest in Commercial Solar Energy, Small-scale-Technology Certificates (STCs) are generated and as a result you receive a generous discount on the solar photovoltaic (pv) system.
The European designed solar pv system we offer is an eligible small-scale renewable energy system which is why we can offer you the STC discount.
The STC rebate is available through a government initiative called the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme. Easily Green Energy Solutions offer this rebate at point of sale, meaning the discount is applied to the quote and you only pay the NET cost. This will alleviate any burden on your business by:
- Taking on the risk for you
- Removing the need to apply for the STC rebate after the solar pv system is installed
- No need to wait for your money back – better cash flow
- We take care of all the complicated and time consuming paperwork for you, which is involved in applying for the STC rebate
The number of STCs created as part of your solar energy upgrade is dependent on the following:
- Location
- The megawatt hours (MWh) of energy that is generated by the solar power system
- Approximately one STC equates to one megawatt hour of electricity generated by your solar pv system
The value of an STC fluctuates daily based on supply and demand. It is a tradable commodity and its price is determined by the activity of the current renewable energy market. As an established solar energy business, we are able to negotiate and secure forward contracts to pass on the best STC discount for your business, at point of sale, making your investment commercially viable.
It is entirely integrated which means less hassle and less risk with only one supplier for everything. Entire system warranty (10 years) in which all components fall under, held in Australia.
