Nectr is now offering ACT residents affordable solar energy solutions.
25th July, 2022
ACT households are now a step closer to affordable energy independence, thanks to award-winning energy retailer Nectr launching solar, and solar and battery energy bundles.
Currently, the ACT Government provides generous solar and battery rebates – as well as financial incentives – to cut the cost of installing solar power systems and home energy storage. With only 20% of homes in the ACT[1] having rooftop solar plus the rising electricity costs, more Canberrans are considering household solar and battery options.
Nectr’s latest solar, and solar and battery energy bundles include competitive electricity rates, shorter contract periods, premium and performance-based hardware, and simple monthly payment plans.
“ACT aims to have 100% of electricity supply sourced from renewables plus is leading the way on promoting the purchase of electric cars, which aligns with Nectr’s vision for Australia becoming a global leader and supporter in renewable energy,” said Andrew Butler, Nectr Managing Director.
“That’s why we’re supporting the ACT’s renewables goal by launching Nectr’s solar, and solar and battery energy bundles in this market. Nectr’s new energy bundles will enable ACT residents to harness and store the power of the sun to use in their household when they need it, particularly during peak periods, and minimise energy drawn from the grid.”
“At Nectr we’re committed to helping Australians find more affordable, greener, cleaner energy solutions to suit their needs and lifestyle. Our solar, and solar and battery energy bundles can get ACT homeowners on the road to energy independence – which means they can start saving money on energy even sooner,” said Andrew.
