Electricity prices may be on the rise, but Tasmanians are wiping out their electricity bills and in some cases even earning an income through installing a solar power system and taking advantage of the 1:1 feed in tariff offered in the state. On the tariff Aurora 31 (day rate electricity), you are saving 25.6 cents per kilowatt hour!
A north facing 5kW system can save you as much as $1,400 per year*! But that’s not all.
Tasmania is Australia’s most southern state and therefore gets the most sun hours during the long days in summer. Long sun hours and slightly cooler temperatures are ideal conditions to be generating solar electricity - earning credits on your power bill that you can use later to offset those expensive heating winter bills.

Aside from using only quality panels and inverters; our SunLock solar panel mounting system is certified for Tasmania’s weather conditions - it's a system designed by us and manufactured right here in Australia.

Tasmania by Energy Matters
We have installed thousands of grid connected and off grid solar power systems for businesses and homes all around Australia. Here's what some of our customers have to say:
“I am semi-retired now and want to make sure my wife and I have a comfortable life. With the price of power bills rising, we worked out that a solar system designed to wipe our bills would be a worthwhile investment. In the best week the system produced $97 worth of power. To anyone considering solar, I’d say – go for it. I used money from my super to finance the system… and am now receiving an 8.2% return on that money.”
- Michael Stebbings, Longford - Read more about Michael’s investment here.
“I have received a couple of bills so far and estimate about a 50% savings. Thanks again for the professional solar energy installation by Energy Matters team so - dealing with your company has been excellent and we look forward to dealing with you sometime in the future - as we are planning to purchase another house.”
- Craig C, White Hills
“The installation went very well and by late afternoon it was feeding into the Tasmanian grid. The installers were very professional. Good weather over the weekend has resulted in an overall small credit in my favour.”
- Roger L, Boat Harbour
