The Environment & Energy Savings

According to the Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage, and the Arts: Installing a solar hot water system can save a family $300 to $700 off their electricity bill every year. The amount that your household will save will depend on the amount of hot water that you currently use, as well as the type of system that you choose. Source: www.environment.gov.au The Australian Federal Govenment states: If you replace an inefficient hot water service with solar, you can usually recover the upfront cost of the new system in 5 to 10 years - you will use the sun as a free source of energy and save the cost of heating water with electricity.

Australia is perfect for solar hot water

The abundance of free and non-polluting energy from the sun makes every Australian roof ideal for collecting this energy to heat our water.

Did you know? A typical electric hot water unit can use more than ONE THIRD of the total energy used in your home.

With a high quality solar hot water system, as supplied by Endless Solar, you can get almost all of your hot water for free, depending on your individual circumstances.

Installing a highly efficient Evacuated Tube solar water heater from Endless Solar is the single biggest thing any household can do to reduce its energy consumption and Greenhouse Gas Emissions.

What about winter? Will I still get hot water?

Getting hot water from the sun in summer is easy. In some parts of Australia in summer you could throw a garden hose on the roof and get hot water. Winter, however, is the true test of a solar hot water system. When it’s cold and there’s less of the sun’s energy, you’ll need a system that is efficient enough to heat your water... even when it’s cloudy or raining outside. If you want year round hot water from the sun - whatever the weather - you can rely on a system from Endless Solar. The absorber coating on our products is incredibly sensitive to a broad spectrum of the sun's radiation. The 'thermos flask effect' of our Evacuated Tubes insulates against the cold air, and traps this valuable heat inside. Learn how our Evacuated Tubes work Learn more about Evacuated Tube Efficiency

Endless Solar, the choice of Planet Ark

After extensive market research, Planet Ark independently chose Endless Solar to provide the solar water heating for their solar powered headquarters in the Blue Mountains, NSW.

"I chose Endless Solar hot water for our solar powered headquarters in the Blue Mountains. We are really pleased with it’s performance and stylish looks. Planet Ark is proud to endorse Hills Endless Solar." Paul Klymenko - Research Director, Planet Ark

Our commitment to a Sustainable Planet

Nothing is more Australian than sunshine...

The abundance of this free and non-polluting energy source makes every Australian roof ideal for using the sun's energy to heat our water.

Only around 7% of Australian households have a solar water heater... even though it's the single biggest thing every household can do to reduce it's energy consumption.

Instead, every day we burn massive amounts of increasingly scarce and expensive carbon-based fuels (coal, oil and gas) to heat water. Surprisingly, very little of the sun's energy is currently used to heat water.

With a combination of super-efficient Evacuated Tube technology and the provision of generous government rebates for solar hot water... we hope to see a solar water heater on every Australian rooftop.

Everyone uses hot water...

Whether you own your own home, run a business or organisation, you need to use hot water. Technology has now advanced to the point where the sun can deliver most of your water heating energy needs.

The sun holds the key to our sustainable energy future

Did you know? Enough solar energy reaches the Earth in 24 hours to meet our global power needs for 24 years! In his visit to Sydney in 2007, Al Gore spoke about the speed at which climate change is taking place and the importance of each person taking action to reduce their own CO2 emissions. He suggested that if both industry and individuals changed their activities to reduce their carbon outputs, the climate change problem could be neutralised, but it could take up to 50 years before half the CO2 now in the atmosphere returns to the earth.

The sun is an immense source of energy that has drenched the earth in sunshine for billions of years. It provides the key to us achieving energy self-reliance on a global scale.

It is an endless, free and non-polluting source of energy that can be used for many purposes, such as: heating water, generating electricity, heating a home... even growing a garden.

Highly efficient and proven solar technologies now exist to help us capture and use this colossal, free, and renewable energy source. Endless Solar is at the forefront of these technologies.

Carbon-based energy resources are rapidly getting scarcer and more expensive. Importantly, they cannot be renewed. By burning them, we not only deplete the Earth's carbon bounty but we also release megatons of Greenhouse Gas Emissions into the atmosphere... resulting in potential changes to the Earth's climate.

Extreme weather events (eg hurricanes, cyclones, floods and drought) are increasing in frequency and intensity. Many of the world's leading climate scientists are unanimous in their conclusion that the world's climate is changing as a result of human activity and that the rate of change is more rapid than previously thought.

Some experts predict that the we may only have 10 years to cut carbon emissions in half in order to slow down the rate of climate change and help stabilise the Earth's climate.

There are actions that everyone can take. Installing solar hot water not only reduces your carbon contribution, but can insulate your household against rising energy costs... without compromising your lifestyle.
