With a name derived from the Murray River, the Murray Bridge is the city that every tourist must see.
Complete with large regional shopping centre, accommodation, restaurants, hotels and sporting facilities, and a good base for water-related sports and activities plus a semi-arid climate, what more can a tourist ask for?
The city also has a newly-opened range zoo where animals can freely roam the 1000-hectare site. And if you wanna look back to the city’s good ol’ times, check out the Captain’s Cottage Museum. The museum houses memorabilia, photographs, model riverboats and vintage machinery that brings back the memories.
Australia is known for its 12-hour daytime, the reason why citizens are now considering the use of the energy from the sun. Lower or no power bills, reduced carbon footprints and the ability to sell the excess power back to the power grid are only few of the advantages we profit from the switch.
Solar power is cheaper alternative
With power prices nationwide expected to increase substantially over the next couple of years, solar is a great way to protect yourself and your family.
On top of the savings that you can receive once your solar power system starts producing power through Feed-in tariffs, the reduction in the up-front cost of systems is also an incentive in itself. Panel prices have fallen dramatically over the last 18 months and this means that a 5kW system which previously cost around $25,000 now costs around $7,000.
If you have any questions about how to use the formulas or any other matter, please don’t hesitate to ask us a question.

For some households a battery system can be of great benefit and minimise a home’s reliance on the grid. However, it’s important to understand for a battery to be useful your solar system needs to be generating excess energy for the battery to store, which you can then use at night or when the sun is not out.
When selecting a battery, you’ll want to invest in a system that is most suited to your home and can drive the best return on investment (ROI). Despite a larger upfront cost, a higher quality battery may significantly increase your ROI.
Battery systems start from $6,000 and costs can vary greatly based on the following factors:
Cycle Life-Time
The number of times a battery can fully charge and discharge.
Battery Power (kW)
How fast it can be charged or discharged.
Storage Capacity (kWh)
The maximum amount of energy a battery system can store.
Battery Management System (BMS)
An electronic ‘smart’ system that gathers data and manages the battery ensuring it does not overload or operate outside of its safe functioning zone..
Inverter
Battery systems require their own inverter if your solar system does not have a hybrid inverter.
'All-In-One Unit’
A system which includes the battery, BMS and an inverter all in one unit.
Warranty
Length of time or cycles the battery system is under guarantee.
Blackout Protection/Backup
It’s important to note this is not a common feature of a battery system and could cost thousands of dollars to include. Blackout protection not only requires additional components but also a specialised installation and rewiring. For grid-connected homes, the cost for blackout protection can outweigh the benefit.
Additionally, if your purpose for adding battery is to go Off-Grid and become completely independent from the grid you will need to ensure your solar system can generate enough energy to power your home and your battery system is large enough to store this energy. For homes in metro areas going Off-grid is not cost effective and is only recommended for those in remote areas with limited access to the grid. Off-grid solar systems with battery start at approximately $30,000.
