Solar Education Kit for Individual Apartments or Townhouses in Strata
Over 2 million rooftops in Australia have solar panels, representing over 22% of residential houses. However, if you are an owner of a townhouse or individual apartment in a low-rise strata scheme you have most likely been locked out of the solar revolution. Less than 0.6% of residential strata buildings in Australia have solar panels today.
There are a few unique challenges for the owner of a townhouse or individual apartment in a low-rise strata scheme to jump through, before you can install a private solar system which you own and maintain on a common property roof, which is technically owned by all the owners in the townhouse or apartment block.
We have put together a Solar Education Kit specifically for individual apartment or townhouse owners which want to pursue solar on their own:
* Understand the units of measurement
* Rules of thumb for sizing a solar system
* Feed-in explained
* Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) explained
* 9 Steps for an individual lot owner to consider who wants to install a private solar system for their own benefit on a common area rooftop
* Tips on how to pass a sustainability infrastructure motion (similar to an ordinary resolution)
* DRAFT application form to send to your strata committee with panel layout by a qualified solar engineer
* 3 examples of by-laws which have been used
* A real life case study to give you ideas
* Links to all the online resources which will help you
