The benefits of using solar energy are numerous as you will make savings on your electricity bills, you may cut back your carbon footprint as the amount of energy that you use will be decreased and you will find that solar energy is cleaner energy as it does not produce any pollutants.

As the installation costs of solar energy system can be prohibitive and also for increased inducement to make use of this cleaner form of energy, there's a system of solar rebates in Perth available.

When you install a solar system in your home you will qualify for solar rebates in Perth using Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). This is calculated using a lot of factors such as the size of your solar system and the amount of energy it produces, the position of your home and REC price that you the owner of the house and the solar system installer will agree upon. One REC unit is equal to 1 hour of electricity megawatt power. The more solar energy that you're able to generate using your solar system the more the savings you are able to get.

You should also be aware that REC prices change just like the stock markets. To get the best from your REC units, you can hold on to them when the prices are low then sell when they are higher. To avoid all this altogether, you can take the standard discount from your solar system installer so you are not impacted by varying prices. You can also trade your RECs on the stock market. The best way to gain from solar rebates is to greatly cut back your electricity use.

This is straightforward in Perth as the weather is mostly bright.
