I just opened my latest electricity bill and apart from wondering how I can afford to pay the bill itself, the cost of visiting the heart specialist everytime the bill comes is getting a bit high as well![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://www.pradopoint.com.au/core/images/smilies/rolleyes.png)
So anyway I think it is time to look seriously at going solar and initial research leaves me totally confused.
Given that many of the knowledgeable people on this forum have probably looked into and even run solar on their house I thought I should get some ideas of what the traps are and who the dodgy operators are.
So I understand that not all solar panels are equal and I am only interested in a quality system, but who is a good operator to contact for a quote (rural SA), does anyone have any idea on the payback period? I don't think I need to produce excess enery to sell back to the grid, just eliminate most of my own bill.
I have 3 phase power does that have any effect?
Government rebates, I gather I may have missed the boat for these?
I have ample unshaded North facing roof space, so at least that part is easy, or am I missing something?
What questions do I need to ask when the experts start throwing facts and prices at me.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers Andrew
