here are so many benefits by integrating a solar PV system into the building of a new home,” says Mark McClurg, owner of Coffs Solar Energy. Apart from the basics, which has all the solar cabling being run discreetly and safely in the roof and wall cavities to the part we like aesthetically designing the solar system to blend in with the new development. “There are many solar design options now feasible,” says Mark McClurg, “adjusting the tilt, the orientation, and selecting the best or most suitable roof sections.” You then have a huge choice of solar product through us. Our company is not limited to a specific brand of product; rather, we can access all the latest and best brands, giving our clients the ability to choose a system that specifically meets their needs. With a variety of solar panels to choose from, our clients can make a selection based on variables such as frame colour, panel technology, panel colour and most importantly,
the power output they require. The best part about our custom design service is that there is no guessing on how the proposed solar system will perform. Based on any design variable, using sophisticated software, we can accurately determine how much clean, renewable energy a solar system will produce. Shade issues? “Not a problem,” says Mark! “We can also access brand new solar panel technology that offers good shade mitigation, something that previously spelt disaster for those homeowners who were shade impacted by a neighbour’s property or surrounding vegetation.” The risk of a faulty product is now all but eliminated, with our very latest range of smart solar inverters. Coffs Solar Energy can install solar systems that include FREE lifetime remote monitoring, with the facility for a replacement product (in the event of a breakdown) to be shipped directly to you without delay.
Clients who are looking for the latest energy storage solutions can look no further. Coffs Solar Energy is one of a select few companies servicing the Mid North Coast to be Tesla accredited, to install the new Powerwall 2 home battery. “The Powerwall 2 battery is a game changer,” says Mark McClurg. “With 13.5 kWh of usable storage, that’s enough energy to look after an average home all night, plus the cost per kWh of storage is significantly less than any other modern Lithium-Ion battery.” Coffs Solar Energy is a Clean Energy Council Approved Solar Retailer. This solar retailer Code of Conduct is a way for solar businesses to show their commitment to responsible sales
and marketing activities and solar industry best practice. It is a voluntary scheme for retail businesses selling solar PV systems to households and businesses. Authorised by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), the code aims to lift the bar higher than the minimum requirements set by government and regulations and bring about a better standard of service within the solar industry.
