Does Perth offer solar?
Yes, if your business has a solar system, you can sign up for a solar plan. You can also request a free quote to have your business assessed and find out how much your business could save by installing solar.
Perth Energy partners with Infinite Energy to provide Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). With a PPA, you can get solar panels installed without paying any up-front costs. You then buy the energy that the solar system produces at a fixed price. Once the PPA ends, you'll own the solar system.
