Residential Solar FAQs
How does residential solar work?
Our residential solar systems use photovoltaic (PV) panels to convert sunlight into electricity. An inverter then transforms this electricity into a form your home can use. Any excess power can be stored in a battery or exported to the grid, earning feed-in tariff credits for additional savings.
How much does residential solar cost?
Residential solar costs vary by system size and energy needs. For instance, a 6.6kW system starts from $780 after government rebates. Contact us for a personalised solar quote.
How long does residential installation take?
Installations of residential solar generally take 1 to 3 days, depending on the system’s complexity and roof structure.
What maintenance is required for residential solar?
Minimal maintenance is needed for residential solar. Annual cleaning and a professional check-up are usually sufficient to keep the system running efficiently.
Are rebates available for residential solar?
Victoria offers rebates and incentives, including the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) and state incentives for residential solar. We’ll guide you through the process to maximise savings.
