Frequently Asked Questions

How much does solar cost in Brisbane and the Gold Coast?

Cost depends on system size, roof complexity and the brand of panels/inverter you choose. As a guide, a quality 6.6kW–10kW system in Brisbane typically runs from around $5,000 to $7,500 after rebates. We'll give you an exact price after a quick assessment of your roof and usage, not a generic online estimate.

How much does a home battery cost?

Battery cost depends on capacity (kWh) and brand — as a guide, expect around $10,000–$16,000 for a battery between 10kWh and 20kWh, and $19,000+ for larger systems above 20kWh. Federal battery incentives currently reduce the upfront cost; we'll confirm exactly what you're eligible for as part of your quote.

Is a battery worth it?

It depends on your usage pattern, your current feed-in tariff, and whether blackout protection matters to you. For most homes with high evening usage or frequent outages, a battery pays back through avoided peak-rate grid usage as well as backup value. We'll run the numbers on your actual bill, not a generic assumption.

What rebates are available?

Solar systems qualify for the federal Small-scale Technology Certificate (STC) scheme, applied as an upfront discount. Battery systems qualify for the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program, which currently covers around 30% of the cost of a battery, applied upfront by your installer. The rebate rate is reviewed periodically and tapers for larger batteries, so the exact figure depends on your system size and installation date — we'll confirm your exact eligibility and rebate value as part of your quote.

What size system do I need?

It comes down to your daily usage, roof space and orientation, and what you want the system to achieve — bill reduction, backup, or both. We size every system to your actual electricity bill and usage pattern, not a one-size default.

Can I add a battery to my existing solar?

In most cases, yes. We'll assess your existing inverter, switchboard and system age to confirm the best way to add battery storage — sometimes that means an AC-coupled battery, sometimes a hybrid inverter upgrade. We'll recommend what's right for your setup, not just what's easiest to sell

How long does solar and battery payback normally take?

Solar alone typically pays back over several years depending on system size and usage; adding a battery extends the payback period but adds backup and greater bill reduction. We'll give you a realistic, bill-based payback estimate as part of your quote — not a best-case marketing number.
