Working From Home in Murwillumbah? Here's How Solar Can Save You Money
Quick update from the Proactive Electrical & Solar team – we’ve had a lot of local clients asking about this lately, so here’s the scoop.
Let’s set the scene…
You’re working from home — your laptop’s nearby, your printer’s plugged in. No big deal, right?
But what about:
The extra coffees you’re brewing during the day?
The lunches you’re now cooking in your oven or air fryer?
The mid-morning laundry cycles (because hey, it’s right down the hall)?
The TV that’s running to keep the kids entertained or tuned into YouTube tutorials?
It all adds up — and it might be why your quarterly electricity bill is starting to sting more than usual.
The Solar Solution for Home Offices
Installing solar panels on your home in Murwillumbah or the Northern Rivers can help offset this increase in daytime power usage. With solar, you’re generating free electricity during the peak times you’re now home — not just mornings and evenings.
Even better? The systems we install are built to last, and we can design them specifically for your work-from-home lifestyle. If you're using air conditioning, multiple devices, or charging tools or equipment during the day, solar could dramatically reduce your power costs.
NSW Battery Rebates – Available Now
Looking to go even further and store excess power?
If you're in NSW, you might be eligible for a battery rebate through the NSW Government’s Empowering Homes Program — which is designed to support households adding battery storage to their solar systems.

This can mean thousands in savings and make your home even more energy-resilient during blackouts or peak times.
