Solar System Upgrades in NSW

Installing additional solar panels is easy with Aussie Solar - even with the 60c FIT.
Increase your productivity and install additional panels to your property. We can install an additional solar system that will not compromise your gross feed in tariff and increase the benefits of solar power to your bottom line.

There are several combinations an upgrade can take place; you may be on the 60c Gross FIT, 20c Gross FIT or on a Net meter with no export tariff. Each option has different limitations set around the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme legislation. In the table below we have shown the combinations.

If you are a recipient of the 0.60c Gross Feed In Tariff from the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme your options are:
Option 1 - Install an additional solar power system separate from the original solar system, and it would be connected to a NET meter. This is the ideal solution - you would not concede your gross FIT. You would receive the 60c Gross FIT for the original system for the remainder of the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme due to expire 31st December 2016.

OR
Option 2 - Install additional solar panels to the existing solar system; have this upgrade connected to your existing Gross Meter. In this circumstance your 0.60c Gross FIT would be reduced to 0.20c Gross fit for the remainder of the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme due to expire on the 31st December 2016. You are allowed to install a maximum of 10kW under the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme.



If you are a recipient of the 0.20c Gross Feed In Tariff from the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme your options are:

Option 1 - Install an additional solar power system separate from the original solar system, and it would be connected to a NET meter. You would continue to receive the 0.20c Gross FIT for the original system for the remainder of the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme due to expire 31st December 2016.


Option 2 - Install additional solar panels to the existing solar system; have this upgrade connected to your existing Gross Meter. In this circumstance you would continue to receive 0.20c Gross fit for the remainder of the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme for the entire system size connected to the Gross FIT due to expire on the 31st December 2016. You are allowed to install a maximum of 10kW under the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme.



If you are currently NET metered your options are:
Simply install an additional system to your property and have the system connected to your existing NET meter.
