With solar installations attracting a 16% depreciation rate, it’s possible that you could break even with your solar installation in just seven `to eight years.
We will calculate the savings potential of a solar system installed at your business. System sizes are tailored to suit individual business requirements. The examples below demonstrate the savings potential of various system sizes.
The table below provides estimated return on investment for various systems over ten years.
Good quality products sourced from trusted manufacturers such as Delta, Enphase, Renesola, SMA, Neuton Power and S-5 are backed by manufacturers warranties. Inverter warranties range from 5-25 years. Renesola panels carry a 25 year performance warranty.
With no moving parts there is virtually no maintenance required for your system other that cleaning (if required) and ensuring tree growth does not become an obstruction.
The average daily energy usage of YHI’s Christchurch branch is 85kWh per day. With an average monthly power cost of $600.00 excluding GST.
Installing a 10kW system provided an average production of 40kWh per day. This gave an average daily power saving of 47% almost halving the daily cost of power for the branch!
Because very little power is used on the weekends, YHI sold power back onto the residential grid at a rate of 0.25c per kWh for the first 5kWh per day and 0.10c per kWh for every KWh produced thereafter. This gives the sell back return of approximately $4.00 per weekend to further offset power costs. YHI have also avoided 720kg of CO2 emissions.
The cost of a 10kW Solar installation is $28,000.00 excluding GST, the financial analysis indicates a profit contribution in the fifth year of operation whilst the cash flow analysis indicates a positive cash flow return in year ten.
With a life expectancy of 20 years this system offers a healthy return on investment and long term positive cash flow.
