Electrification Story

Bec
Despite an increase of 62% in power consumption, we only spent $69 for the whole year.

My name is Bec, I'm an electrician in Queenstown and I had my solar system installed in 2021. Three main reasons for deciding to get solar installed was 1. Financial resilence, we've really managed to get our monthly outgoings down. Another reason for wanting to get solar was to really have that resilience against natural disasters with the grid going down. We live on the alpine fault so it's an ongoing threat but knowing that we've got the backup is amazing. And the third reason is for environmental reasons, I think that if you can do something to help fight against climate change then you really ought to be doing that.
