Costs depend on system size, battery storage, and installation complexity. A typical residential 6.6kW system in Brisbane starts from around $5,000-$7,000 after STC rebates. We provide a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your home or business.
Most of our customers see a 50-70% reduction in their electricity bills. The exact savings depend on your system size, energy usage patterns, and your feed-in tariff rate. We'll estimate your potential savings during your free consultation.
Yes! The federal Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) provides STC (Small-scale Technology Certificate) rebates that significantly reduce the upfront cost of your solar system. We handle all the paperwork for you.
Typically 3-5 years for residential systems and 3-4 years for commercial systems. After that, your solar continues to generate free electricity for 20+ years.
Yes. Panels still generate power in diffuse light, though at reduced output. Battery storage keeps you running when the sun isn't shining, and the grid provides backup for grid-connected systems.
Most residential systems are installed in one to two days, with grid connection arranged afterwards. Commercial installations may take longer depending on system size.
Our solar panels come with 25-year product and performance warranties. Inverters typically have 5-10 year warranties (extendable). We also provide a workmanship guarantee on all installations.
Not necessarily. During your free assessment, we'll check your roof condition. If your roof needs repairs or replacement, we'll advise you before proceeding. It's better to fix the roof first than to remove and reinstall panels later.
Absolutely — we supply and install batteries, hybrid inverters, and solar-powered EV chargers as part of a complete solution. You can add these at the time of installation or later.
It depends on your energy usage. If you use most of your power at night, a battery makes sense immediately. If you're mostly home during the day, panels alone may be sufficient to start. We can help you decide during your consultation.
Most quality lithium batteries last 10-15 years with a warranty of 10 years. They typically retain 70-80% of their capacity after the warranty period.
