Introducing SolarHydro: Revolutionising Solar Power and Central Heating
For the past 9 years, Smart Systems has been dedicated to designing solar power solutions to optimise energy generation for each home - reducing reliance on grid power, ensuring the highest return on the homeowner's investment. This was a great start and will always be our philosophy when designing each solar power solution.
But it was only the beginning.
As consultants, designers, and electricians, we approach solutions from a holistic perspective, recognising the power of synergy. With this in mind, we asked ourselves, how can we make better use of Solar power?
The Solar Journey
Looking for ways that we could make solar power installations more effective took us on a journey of discovery. We wanted to be smarter about solar!
While many are aware of solar power's ability to generate electricity for homes and even store energy in batteries or charge electric vehicles, there was much more to explore.
The Vision: Enhancing Lives through Technology
From the start, Smart Systems envisioned leveraging technology to enhance our clients' lives.
We looked at what the majority of electricity in a home was being used for, which of course is hot water and heating. That's when we discovered the incredible energy efficiency of hydronic heat pumps.
With every kilowatt of electricity, hydronic heat pumps produce an astonishing 3 to 4 kilowatts of heat. This exceptional efficiency set the stage for a groundbreaking solution.
SolarHydro: Unleashing Unprecedented Results
By combining energy generation (Solar) and energy-efficient hot water and heating (Hydronic), we created SolarHydro - a game-changing solution that exceeded our wildest expectations.
Our data revealed 4-bedroom homes with central heating operating so efficiently that even the highest electricity bills amounted to just $1,100 per year, including daily fixed line level charges and GST. One home achieved an annual bill of $888 exc GST.
After studying the data a year later, to understand how the energy was being used, we made further upgrades to the solution, to enhance the synergy between Solar power and Hydronic heating. The solution already worked incredibly well, it just required further energy management.
The results that followed far exceeded the previous results (and we were already impressed with those). The results were so good, that we wondered if people would actually believe us.
We've shared our findings with industry peers and suppliers, and everyone agrees that the impact of SolarHydro is unlike anything seen before.
