Great Interest in Solar Hot Water

Saturday, June 21st, 2008

World Environment Day was a great success. The SolarPay team spoke to more than 2,000 people about solar hot water. Many were astounded at the general environmental benefits as well as the personal financial benefits.

As part of the day, we conducted a survey to see what stops people from purchasing solar hot water. The positive result: 70% had considered solar hot water. However, only one third had actually taken action.

Cost was by far the biggest reason cited as to why they had not gone ahead. 55% thought it was too expensive. However, they did not realise that the current rebates are at an all-time high. And when they heard about the partnership with NAB for finance with no upfront payment, many pledged to check out this website for their options.

Visitors were intrigued with the possibility of solar hot water without any upfront costs and then using the electricity savings to repay it.

Now I am hoping that the buzz we created on the day, flows out into our community. On the Sunshine Coast there are 52,000 freestanding houses that are owner occupied. If every one of those took action, we could avoid 3.1 Million tonnes of CO2 (see solar hot water facts).

And that without spending a single additional cent, in fact each individual who gets solar hot water will be better off financially (up to $12,000) and have the full convenience of hot water.
