AI summary

Cut your power bills with rooftop solar. A typical system costs around $10,000 and can pay for itself in about 8 years, providing free energy for over 20 more.

Panels last 25-30 years and work well throughout New Zealand, with excess power sold back to the grid. Installation must be done by a qualified professional.

Beyond savings, solar reduces your carbon footprint. Use the Gen Less online calculators to get a personalised estimate for your home.
