With a little education creating a better understanding of this tariff, you could be making big savings off your next electricity bill, just like other Aussie householders have found! See our GUIDES page for a link to an easy to follow table, showing the cost differences for electricity used at different times throughout the week. Stick the TOU Table onto your fridge door, making sure everyone in your home is in electricity reduction mode. Email it to friends. You just never know how much you'll save and what your friends can to. For every kilowatt of power not used in the peak rate, but used in the off peak rate you will save around 75% off the cost! Now that is something not to be ignored!!! Happy Home Electricity Reduction Australia.... If you've recently had Solar PV installed, then you're most likely on a TOU tariff. Most electricity meters have a sticker displaying TOU, when this tariff is used. If you're still not sure contact your electricity provider.

So why is there still such a 'negative'Aussie Home EnergyAt Aussie Home Energy we seem to be hearing of so many great success stories, about home electricity reduction. These stories being due to the installation of HOME ELECTRICITY MONITORING &amp; SOLAR PV INSTALLATION. So why is there still such a 'negative', added to many media reports on Solar PV in NSW? What Aussie householders need to be aware of, with media articles on Solar PV in NSW is this, it's not always the Gross or Net 'feed in tariff' [FIT], that reduces the home's electricity costs. The truth is this, any home around Australia can directly offset electricity used, during the 'sun hours', when there is no FIT! And this is not being reported within these media articles. The idea of offsetting electricity seems to not be fully understood by the average householder. Home electricity offsetting is a simple system, one that does not rely on any form of gross or net feed tariff. It simply relies on knowing what electricity you use when the sun is shining. This simple system seems to have been forgotten or not fully understood by many Aussie householders and we would argue that this is because the media fails to add it to their reports. Most likely because they to, do not understand the concept. Currently in NSW a home offsetting electricity costs during the 'sunny hours', can mean a minimum of $641 per year off the electricity bill! The maths here is based on the averaged daily output of a 1.5kW Solar PV system, offsetting electricity at 28.5 cents per kWh. And as electricity prices rise, so do the householder's electricity savings! And if you did not already know it, electricity is going to keep on rising dramatically over the next few years at least! What's more interesting about home electricity offsetting, is that most homes can save more $$$ off the bill, compared to the recent NSW Government's 20 cent gross feed system! You just need to understand the maths! Any home on the 20 cent Gross feed in NSW will most likely save more when connected to the grid on a NET basis. As in Country NSW, the electricity is commonly charged at 28.5 cents per kWh. If the home is using the same or more power generated by the solar system during the sunny hours, that is almost a 50% increase in profit! And a Gross system can be easily switched to a net system. So do we think the media is doing justice to the current situation of Solar PV in NSW? NO! Not when they forget to tag the concept of ELECTRICITY OFFSETTING to the end of their media reports!

Most people initially thinking of construction materials, such as insulation in the roof and walls, along with shading and sun reflecting glass. All of these pointing towards a projected lesser spend over the years, on future energy costs. But what about a home that is more electrically efficient? A home being sold with an installed solar power system. When home energy assessments at the time of sale, become mandatory in all Australian states, energy efficient homes will be valued at a higher price. Simply because they carry a better energy rating and cost less to run. This 'mandatory disclosure', is already happening in the ACT. Occurring at both the time of sale &amp; a new tenancy agreement. Further home saleability factors can be included, where the seller is in reality, selling a home with 'reduced future electricity costs'. Where the seller in theory, sells the home with a certain amount of 'electricity credits'. These 'electricity credits' being a benefit to both parties. The seller being able to ask more at the time of sale. The buyer knowing the home will cost less to run, due to directly offsetting future electricity costs.

With Aussie Home EnergyAround a year ago the NSW State Government's, 60 cent gross feed solar pv program, was reduced to 20 cents per kW. In June this year that 20 cent gross feed program, further ceased for new applicants. Both of these programs finish December end 2016. With both of these investment style programs, the design of any solar pv system, did not take into account a home's electricity use. It's important to realise though as electricity costs rise, any&nbsp; proposed profit from such a system will be in effect, paying for these rising electricity costs. Currently in NSW [October 2011] there is only a net feed tariff of 8 cents per kW, for power exported back to the grid. This tariff is available from AGL. When the following are taken into account, a solar pv system's payback time is quite flexible: The system's costs.The price for imported power.Any revenue for exported power [net feed tariff]. Typically a solar pv system will take six to eight years to pay off. It is rising electricity costs, which now make solar pv systems, so attractive. As electricity costs rise, the system in effect pays for itself quicker. Any system should be designed primarily to match daytime usage, maximising the offsetting of any electricity costs.

Have you ever wondered though, if you could you be making more money from your solar pv, by switching from the 20 cent gross feed tariff, to a net feed electAussie Home EnergyCurrently a lot of homes in NSW have a solar pv system installed, on a 20 cent gross feed tariff. Have you ever wondered though, if you could you be making more money from your solar pv, by switching from the 20 cent gross feed tariff, to a net feed electricity offset system? We are not talking about the net feed tariff, in particular here! Let us look at a example home with a 2kW solar system, generating an average of 8kW of solar power per day. Connected to a 20 cent gross feed tariff, this home can generate the following annual revenue. 8 X 20 cents X 365 days of the year equals $584. What we mean by electricity offset is this, you use what you generate during the daytime and we mean the sunny hours. Importantly you use it at that same time. Therefore you're not purchasing electricity at this time! The trick is to make sure a similar amount of energy is used, to the 8kW generated. The reason for this is simple, any excess power fed back into the grid currently has little financial gain, as the rate is only 8 cents per kW, in country NSW. So you will want to match the electricity required under the roof, to that generated above the roof or vice versa. To big a solar system and your only getting paid 8 cents per kW for excess power. An option here would be to increase the electricity used during the day, for example by operating more appliances on timers, to equal the power generated. To small a solar system and your purchasing electricity at cost, a cost that is forecast to&nbsp; rise dramatically over the next few years. As we can see our example home using 8kW during daytime, is going to offset electricity costs of, 8 X 28.5 cents X 365 days of the year, equals $832. Now that's almost $250 per year more, than the 20 cent gross feed system generates! And as electricity costs rise, there is a considerable more financial gain, than the 20 cent gross feed tariff! At 35 cents per kilowatt hour, the total offset electricity costs per year are $1022. This is an increase of $438 per year, compared to the 20 cent gross feed system.At 40 cents per kilowatt hour, the total offset in electricity costs is $1168. An increase of $584 per year, compared to the 20 cent gross feed system.At 50 cents per kilowatt hour, the total offset is $1460. Increasing to $876 per year, more than the 20 cent gross feed tariff, can offer! As your gross feed solar investment system is on a limited timeline, is it not the time now, to do your maths? You'll be able to work out, at what time any electricity offsetting system, may be the better solution of you. All based on the ACCURATE ANALYSIS OF DAYTIME ELECTRICITY USAGE and the size of your SOLAR PV SYSTEM. If you are thinking of installing solar pv on your home, call the Aussie Home Energy team today.

How long would it take you to notice if there was a problem with your Solar PV array? It seems the inverter is checked frequently for a while by many householders, soon after the Solar PV is installed. Unfortunately this frequency can drop off dramatically, in the months to come. If this is the case, you may only find out about an issue with your Solar PV, only when the next electricity bill arrives. By then of course, it's too late! Your bill will be showing you an increase in the imported power and a decrease in the exported. Costing you big dollars! So what is the solution, for making sure you can keep an eye on the output and efficiency of your solar system? The easy answer is to install a home energy monitor. A HOME ELECTRICITY MONITOR easily allows you to see the output of your Solar PV at all times. You will further be able to educate yourself, about your home's electricity usage under the roof. This knowledge assisting you in minimising any waste under the roof, in effect financially making your Solar PV more efficient. You will learn more about when you are making the most energy and financial gain from your Solar PV. Importantly where there is an issue with your system's function, you will be notified at once, by a drop in your kWh's exported or financial gain. Sounds all too easy, but this simple solution is often missed! Costing many Aussie homes big dollars. Do you want to find out about an issue with the output of your solar system, in three months time? Of course not, so add a HOME ENERGY MONITOR to your solar system today and make sure your not losing out on your home energy investment.

Quoting from their website, "The Labor government said almost 6 million Australians will be marginally better off, or fully compensated, under its carbon tax." "The opposition, as you might expect, disagrees, suggesting the tax is an attack on 'aspirational Australians'. They've also highlighted a number of case studies where middle income families will have to pay more." "So, what do you need to do to recoup the cost of a carbon tax on your household?

With all the talk about increased energy efficiency and energy sAussie Home EnergyDoes Increased Energy Efficiency Mean Less Energy Used? Many Australians are led to believe that modern energy efficient appliances, use less energy than older supposedly non-efficient ones. With all the talk about increased energy efficiency and energy stars, it is easy to understand why this is so. It is further easy to understand why the average householder would not question these beliefs, when we are being told this by governments, manufacturers and marketeers. Are we really be told the full truth though? Is the average Australian making the correct choice and taking home an appliance that will 100% of the time, use less energy than the appliance they threw out? Would a bit more information allow for a better educated choice? Could this additional insight question some of these beliefs? Beliefs that are based on information from governments, manufacturers and marketeers. Parties who want us to buy their products? At Aussie Home Energy we would argue, that it is not a good assumption to believe that for 100% of the time, newer appliances use less energy than older appliances! We would say there is more knowledge that a buyer needs to understand, before being able to make a well educated choice? The problem is, most people have been led to believe energy efficiency means less energy used. This is not always the case though and Australians need to be aware of this. Most of us appear to have been brainwashed, into believing the buying of a modern appliance, means it's almost a 100% guarantee less energy is going to be used. At Aussie Home Energy we are going to show you, that this is not always the case.&nbsp; We are going to show you an existing operational, 'old school' 1950's Pope Power-Pak fridge, indeed uses less energy than it's modern 250L equivalent. You would be correct into maybe thinking the 60 year old Pope Power-Pak fridge, would be using more energy because it has: An old style compressor.Old decaying or a lack of insulation.Inefficient or reduced refrigerant.Old decaying door seals.Old style energy hungry technology.High energy use by design. What we have found out though, is quite the opposite. That this old appliance is using far less energy, than it's modern equivalent of comparable size! So why is this? Well this simple refrigeration appliance, consists of nothing more than a compressor and a light. Built before the days of multiple additional components. And it is the simplicity [less components] of the appliance here, that is keeping the total energy used at a low, even though the components may not be the most efficient. Specifications of the 250L Pope Power-Pak fridge are, that it has an ampere rating of 1.85 Amps and is connected to an averaged voltage of 245 volts. The home electricity monitors used during testing, were of the type measuring voltage and current, to compute the total energy used by the appliance. The test results showed the Pope Power-Pak had a monthly operational cost of approximately $2.85 during the winter and $3.10 during the summer. The electricity tariff was 22.12 cents per kWh, with the Pope averaging 14.01 kWh per month. Annual forecast operational costs were $37.19 per year / 168 kWh per year. Now what is amazing here, is that if you go shopping in the energy efficient fridge section of your local electrical store, shopping for the same running costs per year, all you can find is a non-comparable bar fridge! So what is going on here, we here some of you ask? Let us explain. Firstly to double prove our results, we ran the tests twice with two different brands of home electricity monitor. The results were almost identical taking into account the different brands of monitor, slight changes to appliance usage patterns and seasonal changes. The results had less than 5% difference. Secondly let us look at a modern fridge, an appliance that over the years has had a lot of extra components added to keep the modern family happy.

With halogen downlights being so popular in Australia, we thought it a good idea to introduce some of you, to the new LED LIGHTING. This form of technology is now able to replace most lights, in the Aussie home. What we will quickly discuss here, is the LED light as a form of halogen replacement. Can LEDs Be Dimmed? Yes they can but not with a standard incandescent dimmer. You will need an electronic dimmer. There are at least three ways a dimmer can be installed, into an LED downlighting system. Similar to an incandescent system, where there is a wall fitted dimmer control.Where the dimmer control is remote activated and sited in the roof cavity.The LED light comes with the dimmer built into the globe and is remotely controlled. Dimmers can be wired to dim a single LED downlight, or a large array. Do LEDs Come In More Than One Colour? Firstly we will cover the shades of white that a LED can come in. Unlike incandescent light globes, that were always warm white, the LED can come in warm or cool white, or just white. In fact LEDs can come in any colour. A new exciting feature of LED lighting is, colour changing. Illustrated above is a 3 watt MR16 12 volt halogen replacement. Whilst only 3 watts, it would not be the best choice to read under, but can be used to change the mood of any room. The remote control, offering colour changing sequences, fixed colours and dimming. Can I Just Install The LED Halogen Replacements? Whilst you may be able to get the LED to trigger if you did, there are somethings you need to be aware of: Some transformers may damage the LED halogen replacement.You may need to install specifically designed LED light transformers.Your old transformer is designed to trigger under high wattage. LED's are low wattage.The LEDs will not dim with existing incandescent or halogen dimmers. It is important to be aware of the above, as damage to the new LED lighting could occur. We would suggest you speak to your local light shop about your existing installation, regarding the suitability of transformers and dimmers. For more information on our LED downlight investigation, see our LED DOWNLIGHT COMPARISON TESTS. We will be reporting on other forms of LED lighting for Aussie homes soon.

These studies showing that homes now have the ability, to save as much as 15% to 20% or more, off their electricity usages costs, when a home electricity monitor is installed! Without this 24/7 feedback, householders often slip back into old habits, or tend to assume they can do no more, in their attempts to bring the home electricity bill back under control. With no feedback on electricity usage in the home, it's difficult to see what savings are going to be made during any home energy reduction attempts, until the next electricity bill arrives! Of course by then it is too late and if the changes saved you little, it has in fact cost you dearly. With a 24/7 home electricity monitor installed in your home, there's always going to be the possibility, for future electricity reductions via your increased awareness, or via input from others. A home energy reduction system that easily proves all suggestions in real-time. Feedback from our home electricity monitor clients, is constantly reporting of newly found savings.

Well when you're looking at monitoring electricity generated by your Solar PV, you may be faced with the problem of having to site your home electricity monitor's transmitterAussie Home EnergySo Why Would You Want To Waterproof Your Home Electricity Monitor's Transmitter? Well when you're looking at monitoring electricity generated by your Solar PV, you may be faced with the problem of having to site your home electricity monitor's transmitter, out in the weather. Knowing at the same time, the transmitter is not waterproof! So What Can You Do To Waterproof Your Transmitter? Well a common solution is to wrap the transmitter in plastic bags and tape. The only problem being here, is this solution could be very temporary for many reasons, resulting in a damaged transmitter. We have found a simple solution, that eliminates those plastic bags and at the same time provides a 100% waterproof solution. The transmitter is placed inside it's own waterproof plastic box. Such a box is available from Jaycar Electronics and is suitable for both the Current Cost ENVI &amp; ENVIR Home Electricity Monitor's transmitters. The Jaycar Electronic's part number being HB6402, costing AUD $19.95. The box comes with a waterproof seal in the lid and strong clips to keep it tightly closed. With a little invention it would not be too hard, to drill a hole in either side of the box and during any solar PV installation, pass the cable from the solar array through the box. This would allow for the current clamp to be inside the box as well. If you decide to look into this option, you may need to choose a larger box. Whilst working with the idea of waterproofing the Current Cost transmitter, we noticed that our test transmitter's range was considerably extended, whilst outside of&nbsp; the metal powerbox. In fact we extended the range of the transmitter [by line of sight] to over it's maximum of 100 metres. After considerable testing of the Current Cost's transmitter's range, whilst in the metal clad powerbox, we found the range to be around 32 metres. Once outside of the powerbox and in the plastic box, the range was extended by a staggering 82 metres to a total of 112 metres. We noted the stronger signal allowed us to monitor the electricity usage, at areas inside and out of the home, where previously we had no signal. Our tests were run twice with a portable battery supply powering the monitor. This allowing for very accurate signal patterns to be created around the home at six second intervals. This interval being the transmitter's transmit sequence. What we ended up doing after this finding, was to install the transmitter permanently outside of the metal powerbox. We aligned the holes both in the back of the plastic box with those on top of the powerbox. The holes between the two, being sealed with a plastic ferule and locknut and added sealant. If your powerbox is open to the elements, then a decision to mount the plastic box on the top, side or bottom of the powerbox will have to be made. One that provides the best waterproof solution. So for only $20 you now have a waterproof solution to monitoring your alternative energy source and keeping your home energy monitor's transmitter range to it's maximum.

How will these electricity price rises, affect the financial gain of solar PV systems? Shockingly enough electricity costs only have to rise a small amount, to create a large reduction in the financial gain of any solar PV system! If you're not aware of the average Aussie home having a STANDBY ELECTRICITY issue, you need too be. Most homes we have visited, have a standby electricity rate, at anywhere between 25 watts to 250 watts plus. If your home has 150 watts of 24/7 standby electricity, this equates to 3.6 kW per day. Per year it is a staggering 1314 kW. It does not take a lot of electrical waste within the home, to reduce a solar PV's gain.In our example Aussie home: 100 Watts Of 24/7 Standby Reduced Solar PV Gain By 40%!

Such as this one, aired on television last week. "Save $300 Off Your Electricity Costs, Over 3 Years". Adverts such as this, along with a team of door knocking electricity provider's foot patrols, seem to be on every corner, of every street! Offering householders, supposedly great offers to help them save on electricity costs. And of course all too easy, when you change electricity provider. Now whilst saving on electricity costs, is a good idea for all, is it the best way for the householder to save? Of course it is a great way for the electricity supplier, to increase market share, with the kickback being to the householder, a price reduction. But one thing it is NOT, is the best way for the householder to save on electricity costs. And what will some of those householders do, when they have switched providers? Well, assume they cannot do anything else! The best way to save on electricity costs, is to follow the proven process of, Becoming aware of how you are charged for electricity, and have a full understanding of the bill.Being aware of your electricity usage.Being aware of where you are using electricity.Learning how to reduce the electricity usage.Having a feedback system, to keep you on track. Failing with this proven common sense process, means you will carry on being, just a BILL PAYER! Looking at the offer in more detail, $300 over 3 years equates to only $25, per quarterly bill! For most homes, that is not really a saving of great magnitude. From experience we would say most homes, with a bill over $500 per quarter, could easily save at least $50 per quarter. So if your a home, with a quarterly bill of $750, $1000 or $1500 plus, imagine what you could be saving? We would argue, all Aussie homes need to save far more than $25 per bill! It is not just the action of savings here, but energy reduction. These offers of reduced electricity costs, do nothing&nbsp; to assist Aussie homes with home energy reduction. We need to slash energy waste, as we are very wasteful. Wasteful because we're, none the wiser. What Australia needs to become, is a nation that reduces it's home energy usage on mass. This will not happen though with a $25 per bill saving, but through a process that involves : AWARENESS, EDUCATION &amp; FEEDBACK! Of course, that is what Aussie Home Energy offers all of their Home Electricity Audit clients with. And who knows, how much you could save over time, with that kind of an insight. So what does the householder choosing the $300 offer get? Well exactly $25 off the bill, every quarter, for three years. But nothing more! NO AWARENESS. NO EDUCATION. NO FEEDBACK. Simply put, the householder remains, a BILL PAYER! Ask yourself, what would you rather be? Our clients would tell anyone, it 100% makes sense, to become an educated electricity user. By doing this, you will not just move on from being a bill payer, but become fully aware of, What uses electricity in your home and why.When the most &amp; least electricity is being used.What the cheapest rates for electricity are, at various times of day.How to reduce your electricity usage and costs further.Smart shopping, when looking for new electrical appliances. The problem with adverts for switching electricity providers, when marketed solely as electricity savings, is that they simply keep householders in the loop of, BILL PAYER MODE ONLY! Householders who, are still not aware of home electricity reduction options. Options that could save them far more than $25 per quarterly bill. Interestingly if you do the homework on some of these offers, you may find you are going to be charged exit fees, when you decide to change back to your previous provider. Exit fees of course, for breaking that three year contract. Fees that in some cases are so steep, most of your savings up to that date, will be gone in a flash!
