Small Business Solutions
eco-Kinetics provides expertise and capabilities in a diverse range of energy efficient products and innovative renewable energy technologies. As a leading renewable energy system integrator eco-Kinetics offers professional engineering solutions from concept planning and detailed design to supply, installation and commissioning.
Projects are developed on the basis of clearly defined and measureable financial and environmental return on investment figures. Our project management team ensures delivery on time and within budget.
We enable our customers to reduce green house gas emissions and protect the environment through affordable and sensible investments.
Corporate and larger solar power systems can deliver strong value in terms of Return on Investment and a contribution to reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
One megawatt hour of solar generated electricity saves approximately one tonne of CO2 being released into earth's atmosphere.
For Small to Medium businesses Eco-Kinetics has designed solar PV systems starting at 10 kilowatts and upward for three phase systems.
Eco-Kinetics recommends efficient and sustainable energy management principles to increase the value of adopting renewable energy solutions. There are a multitude of ways energy can be saved and costs reduced by identifying waste and opportunities to do things more efficiently. We suggest an Energy Audit is a good way to commence certain projects where the best path to the solution is to find out where energy is being used and how.
Why Invest In Solar PV Systems
- A properly designed and installed PV solar system using quality components should return an operating life of 20 years + (excluding unforseen events)
- Energy offset - electricity produced by your solar system will be subtracted from your electricity bill
- Mitigate rising electricity prices for the long term
- Increase the value of your property
- Asset depreciation over the life of the system
- Reduce your carbon foot print and receive Small-scale Technology Certificates (STC's) which can be sold into the market or equivalent amount can be deducted from the initial capital cost
- Be part of the Governments Carbon Reduction scheme, which aims to reduce CO2 emission levels by 25% by 2020.

Notes
Eco-kinetics is pleased to offer the supply; installation and commissioning of various sizes of solar power generation systems. For these examples our design and estimates are based on the following conditions:
| Location | Australia |
| Installation | Roof mounted system |
| Shading | None |
| Output | 3 Phase, 230Vac per Phase, 50Hz. |
| Area | 80> 800 m2 |
| Orientation | North facing |
| System Type | Grid connected |
- System yields are calculated using a computer program and based on optimum conditions
- Prices are indicative and may vary depending on site evaluation
- Certain dollar amounts are subject to fluctuating market prices and government legislation
- ROI is a cost saving, assuming 100% energy consumption and $0.22 kWh energy cost from the grid (exc GST)
- Calculations are current for July 2011
