With the latest technology in water heating, Apricus has released an All-In-One Heat Pump Hot Water System with great warranties, user interface, app access and zero global warning potential.

The Tasmanian State Government has announced an Energy Saver Loan Scheme, through financers Brighte. Up to $10,000 will be available through an interest-free loan, able to offset upfront costs for energy efficient home investments. Due to commence mid-October, 2022.

Recently the Commonwealth Bank announced a new CommBank Green Loan as part of their ongoing contribution to a sustainable future.

In this blog post we will explain the ins and outs of CommBanks new Green Loan.

Heat Pump Hot Water systems are the latest technology in water heating and could potentially slash your hot water heating costs by up to 80%. HPHW systems use the surrounding Tasmanian air as their energy source to heat the water through a heat-exchange process.

This blog will talk you through how they work, some of the heat pump hot water systems on the market at the moment and how they can potentially save households up to 80% on hot water heating costs.

Conventionally, Tasmanian homes are connected to the grid on TWO flat rate tariffs, tariff 31 (light and power) and tariff 41 (heating and hot water).

This blog post will explain the ins and outs of Aurora's tariffs, in particular the Time of Use Tariff 93 for both those with solar systems and those without.

Electric Vehicles are the future of transport, they reduce carbon footprint and aid in improving air pollution and climate change by eliminating harmful gasses from being emitted like our typical combustion engines have done for many years. In this blog post we hope to explain some of the benefits surrounding electric vehicles, as well as EV chargers and what their role is when it comes to solar PV systems and how you can incorporate the two together.

A recent solar installation in Southern Tasmania included the removal of a faulty system, which we replaced with a 4.2kW SolarEdge System.

With restrictions starting to ease, we are all still spending more time at home to help flatten the curve, as a result we are using more energy throughout the day at home. As work lives, schooling and socialising adapt to a more frequent online presence it is likely that many Tasmanian families can expect a larger than usual energy bill in the coming months, especially with Winter on the doorstep.

LG has put together a comprehensive list of more than 250 solar questions and answers on the use of solar power in Australia and New Zealand. We’ve picked out the top 10 most asked questions we get at Whitney Electrical & Solar from Tasmanian people just starting to research solar.
