Solar Power in New South Wales
Switching to solar power can mean an end to energy bills
Under the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme, your energy retailer must pay you for 100% of the electricity created by your solar system at a minimum rate of 60c per kWh. This income can offset the cost of your energy bills.
For example, per year:
A typical 1.44 KW solar system in Sydney produces
2,500kWh x 60c = $1,500
An average house uses 5,100kWh x 20c = $1,022
You can profit by almost $500 per year from your energy retailer. For further information about the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme visit the NSW Government Industry and Development website.
Live Green Solar offers competitively priced quality Solar Power Systems fully installed to customers in the Sydney region. We offer a range of different system sizes to suit your home and budget. View our Solar Power Brochure for further details.

Generous rebates
We offer considerable discounts through the Federal Government’s Renewable Energy Target program (RET) and Solar Credits Program (SCP).
The RET scheme aims to encourage additional renewable energy sources by awarding RECs for installing renewable energy systems such as solar power. The Solar Credits program multiplies by up to five the number of RECs awarded for the first 1.5kW of the solar power system. If you’re eligible, Live Green Solar will purchase the RECs from you in the form of a point of sale discount. This discount is indicated in your quote.

Optional Grid Connection Service
You can elect to manage the grid connection process yourself, using your own electrician, or we are happy to arrange it for you, for an additional cost.
In order to connect to the National Grid and start receiving the benefits of the NSW Solar Bonus Scheme, you will likely require an upgrade to your electricity meter.
An application to connect is sent to your electricity distributor for approval to connect to their network. Once approval is granted and your system is installed, your electrician will arrange to collect and install your meter and connect your system to the grid. The meter must be installed by a Level 2 qualified electrician.
If you would like us to arrange your grid connection, you will need to provide a clear photograph of your switch board and a copy of your most recent electricity bill front and back within 7 days of paying your deposit.
Flexible payment options
You can pay your system off over time by choosing our no interest ever payment plan. We offer a simple and fast application process with quick on the spot approval. All that’s required is a 10% deposit and your solar power system can be installed and earning you money.
