Reduce Your Power Bills with 12v Pure Sine Wave Inverters and Home Solar Energy System

Are you suffering from huge electric bills? If you are, you might want to consider investing in 12v pure sine wave inverters and solar PV systems. According to the Clean Energy Council, this technology is allowing Australian households to generate, store, and use home solar power that can help them significantly minimise their daily power consumption. As a result, they are able to enjoy bigger savings and "turn our electricity system on its head."

One example is the Wilson family from Croydon in Victoria. Ian Wilson, the head of the family, said they were able to reduce +two-thirds of their power bill since installing a solar PV-inverter-battery storage system more than a year ago. The system works like this. The energy generated by the solar panel mounted on Mr Wilson's roof goes through the inverter. Then, it charges a battery block with 16kW hour capacity, which is placed in his garage.

The home solar energy system, which could also work with a 24v pure sine wave inverter, has enabled the Wilson family to sustain their energy needs through battery-stored energy during peak time, which is from 5pm to 11pm. When electricity is at the cheapest rate, which is from 11pm onwards, the Wilson family switches back to grid power.

“That’s really what’s saved us (money),” Mr Wilson said, adding that setting up and then managing a home solar energy system is not as complicated as what many people think. “It’s seamless. You don’t have to do anything; you don’t even know it’s there.”

Darren Gladman, policy manager at the Clean Energy Council, said while the initial price of investing in a home solar power system may be expensive, which starts from $9,000 to $10,000, the long-term benefits of using alternative sources of energy is definitely worth it. "Energy storage is a technology with amazing potential, which is widely expected to turn our electricity system on its head and give people more power in both senses of the word," he explained.

With the availability of devices that make harnessing the power of the sun more possible, such as pure sine wave inverters in Australia, there has been a growing interest in home solar power systems in the country these days. And according to Mr Gladman, if you set one up now, you can enjoy its benefits in two years' time.

If you are considering having your very own home solar energy system, make sure to invest in quality equipment to ensure reliability. Shop for a 12v-240vinverter at Elinz today.
