    Solar Photovoltaic Specialists:


    Chromagen

    Enough sunlight falls on the earth every minute to meet the world's energy demands for an entire year. Utilize the energy from the sun with Chromagen's Solar Photovoltaic systems.

    Chromagen's solar electricity systems generate electricity using the photovoltaic(PV) effect. When you use electricity you are using solar generated power or power from the grid if the solar energy is insufficient. If you are using little or no electricity, your solar energy system is feeding electricity back into the grid and teh electric company buys that power from you. In effect, your home becomes a mini solar power station generating electricity and selling it to the grid for use by you or your neighbours.

    Solar Hybrid

    Solar Hybrid

    Solar Hybrid Air-conditioning is revolutionising the renewable energy sector. Use the power of the sun to run your air-conditioning system both day and night!

    How does it work? A small solar panel next to the outdoor unit collects energy which is used to heat water, the water is stored for use overnight. The hot water then superheats the refrigerant gas to increase the efficiency of the system and reduce the electricity used. The cost savings are substantial and continue even when the sun goes down.
