50kW
Solar System
Potentially still in the medium sized business category and depending on the size of the building and energy usage, 50kW solar PV systems are usually suited to office buildings, retailers, primary schools, clubs, hospitality venues and other establishments that use around 350kWh per day.
Systems this size qualify for Small Scale Technology Certificates or STC’s under the federal government Small Scale Renewable Energy Scheme. This means you get an upfront reduction in the cost of purchasing a solar system under 100kW. The value of STC’s go up and down with market rates and depend on availability and whether or not a company has purchased STC’s at the high end of the market or the low end of the market.
Aesthetics
Our team is dedicated to match the aesthetics of your system to your needs. This can range from black panels, frameless panels or an arrangement to keep the system hidden from view on the street. These can be discussed in further detail with your energy consultant.
How long will my system last?
50 kW Solar PV systems are made up of panels and inverters. Tier 1 reputable panels have performance warranties of 25 years and product warranties of 12-25 years (depending on the brand) and inverters can have warranties of 10 years +.
Size
Depending on the Watt of the panels (or modules) will depend on how many you need. The higher the Watt of the panel, the less panels you will need. If each panel Watt is 330kW, you would need 151 panels.
