Solar As A Service
Solar Energy as a Service is a long-term power purchase agreement. It
enables a fast and easy way to produce renewable energy. Forget complicated
saving calculations and enjoy affordable and predictable priced renewable
energy.
Solar as a service is an exciting, radical departure from the current
model of how solar systems are installed and sold. It promises to revolutionise
how available solar is because it is the first time solar with a battery can be
installed on homes where electricity savings begin in month one instead of 5-7
years later, once a system has been paid off.
How does SAAS solve these issues?
Solar as a service (launched first by Plico in WA) removes 100% of the complexity of which system to choose because it standardises the solar + battery systems and puts the responsibility on the company providing the solar system instead of the home owner. If a company is continually responsible for a solar system over a 25-year period then why would they choose inferior systems? The solar + battery system is constantly monitored by the company and if there are any malfunctions or drops in performance, the solar company fixes them proactively.
What are the advantages of solar as a service and why is this exciting?
People want an easy to understand solution where they are making most of
their energy freely from the sun. They want something that is 100% hands off
and worry free while being able to see the results of the savings on an app on
their phone or ipad at a glance.
The whole system being proactively monitored means that that you can set
and forget. Your system manages the transition of energy between panels,
battery and the grid automatically.
Who wouldn’t want to add a full electrical generation system
to their home at no cost (saving money) to help the planet and their own
pocket?”
