Solar Power for Newcastle Businesses
Solar Power for Newcastle Businesses: A Strategic Financial Investment with Newy Solar Co
In the vibrant business landscape of New South Wales, adopting solar power isn't just a choice; it's a strategic move that aligns seamlessly with the operational needs of businesses. In this article, we will delve into why solar power is exceptionally well-suited for businesses in NSW, with a specific focus on the synergy between daytime operations and the efficiency of solar energy solutions provided by Newy Solar Co.
Reason 01: Operational Synchronicity:
One of the key reasons why solar power is an ideal fit for businesses lies in the synchronicity between daytime operations and the peak performance of solar panels. Most businesses in NSW operate during daylight hours when the sun is shining, and solar panels are at their most efficient. This alignment ensures that the energy generated by solar panels directly corresponds with the energy consumption needs of businesses, maximizing self-consumption and minimizing reliance on external power sources.
It’s easy to visualise. Imagine you have a business in Newcastle, and that business uses a lot of electricity. Fortunately for you, the time that your business is operating (usually between 7am - 6pm) also happens to be the time when the sun is shining and the solar power system is operating best! Who would of thought.
This curve represents two things.
1: The amount of sun-light energy received and when it is received
2. The curve also follows the energy usage profile of a business. That is, in the morning, the energy demand begins, and it tapers off at the end of the day.
Maximizing Self-Consumption:
Solar power systems generate electricity when the sun is shining, and this aligns perfectly with the energy demands of businesses during their operational hours. Unlike residential setups where energy consumption might be lower during the day, businesses often have a consistent and significant demand for power during daylight hours. With solar panels actively producing electricity during this time, businesses can directly utilize the energy they generate, reducing reliance on the grid and leading to substantial cost savings.
Maximising Self Consumption for your business in Newcastle via a solar system from Newy Solar Co is of paramount importance. When you maximise self consumption, you stop paying $.50c per Kw and you pay nothing. Many business use around 200-300 kw of energy per day - so it’s not hard to see the absolute benefit you can get from maximising self consumption.
Reduced Dependency on the Grid:
The beauty of solar power for businesses is the ability to reduce dependency on the grid during peak demand periods. Newy Solar Co understands the intricacies of business operations and tailors solar solutions to match the specific energy needs of each client. By leveraging solar power during daytime operations, businesses can mitigate the impact of high grid electricity prices and, in some cases, even contribute excess energy back to the grid, further enhancing financial returns.
You would have noticed that in Newcastle NSW Ausgrid is our energy distributor (same for Newcastle and the Hunter) and they set the base rates for electricity. Ausgrid implements something called a demand charge which is a charge levied to business for excess peak power usage. I have seen many cases where customers are paying upwards of $30.00 per day just for this demand charge.
Having a solar system designed and installed for your business by Newy Solar Co will not only reduce your dependency from the grid but it will mean that you are less exposed to this demand charge as well - because now you have your solar system working and therefore, your demand on the energy grid is reduced.
Optimal Performance and Cost Savings:
Solar panels operate at their highest efficiency when exposed to direct sunlight. This means that businesses investing in solar power through Newy Solar Co experience optimal performance during the very hours they need it the most. This not only translates into enhanced cost savings but also positions businesses to take full advantage of government incentives and rebates designed to promote clean energy adoption.
Conclusion:
The synergy between daytime operations and solar power is a powerful combination for companies and businesses in NSW. Newy Solar Co recognises this unique advantage and tailors solar solutions that capitalize on the abundant sunlight, aligning energy generation precisely with business needs. By choosing solar power, businesses not only reduce their carbon footprint but also unlock substantial financial benefits through enhanced self-consumption and reduced dependency on the grid.
