What system is best for me?

There are a number of factors to consider when deciding to invest in a solar system.
First off is deciding which solution is best for you and your home.
Our Solar Experts will discuss & design each option and advise which system is best for you.

 

Grid-Tied System

A grid-connected solar power system is the simplest, most cost effective residential solar system. It also often provides the best return on your investment.

A grid-connected solar power system will utilise your generated solar power during sunlight hours and export excess solar power to the grid. When the sun goes down and your solar panels are no longer generating the system will switch back over to the grid.

This system is best if you have reasonable day time usage and / or able to load shift appliances to operate throughout the day i.e. washer / dryer, hot water, swimming pool, spa, EV etc.

System Requirements: Solar Panels, Grid-Tied Inverter, Energy Meter

Hybrid System

A hybrid solar system is an upgrade of a grid-tied solar system by incorporating battery storage. The hybrid system utilises battery storage to optimise the solar generation during the day by capturing any used solar power (instead of exporting it) and then using the stored power when the sun goes down.

The hybrid system is still connected to the grid which acts as the systems 'back up'. A significant additional benefit is back up power in event of a power outage.

This system is best if you have majority of your power usage outside of sunlight hours and have regular power outages.

System Requirements: - Solar Panels - Hybrid Inverter - Battery Storage - EPS Control Box - Energy Meter

Off-Grid System

Off-Grid systems have no connection to the grid and therefore require battery storage to power appliances when solar panels aren't generating enough power due to a lack of sun light.

If you are to go “Off-Grid” it is vitally important to understand your power usage and appliance load to correctly size your battery storage to last at least 1 - 2 days without recharging. Additionally we recommend integration with a back up generator so you are prepared for all situations.

While these systems can be complex and expensive, often, they’re more cost effective than running power lines to remote areas.

System Requirements: - Solar Panels - Off-Grid inverter - Battery Storage - Backup generator (optional)

Solar Panels

PV (Photovoltaic) Panels are the starting point of any solar solution and will ultimately determine how much electricity you generate.

Installing quality PV panels with a well designed plan will ensure you get the most out of your solar solution.

We supply premium panels only, working with Tier 1 manufacturer’s.

We are proud to partner with Trina Solar & Longi who are global leaders in Solar PV.


Solar Inverter 

Solar Inverters are the brains of your solar system. An inverter manages your solar generation, house / load consumption, battery recharge / discharge and export of any surplus - all at the same time!

We are proud to partner with global leaders SolaX, Goodwe, Huawei and SMA.

 

Battery Storage 

Battery storage maximises savings on your power bills and gives true energy independence.

Innovative lithium-ion batteries store generated energy for use in your home when and how you want.

Sleek design offer significant space saving that can be installed inside or outside, floor or wall mounted.

All our batteries are modular which can scale to suit homes of any size.


Energy Monitoring

Every quality solar installation should offer real time monitoring so you can see your system working for you.

SolaX Cloud Remote Monitoring - Your system at your fingertips.

Monitor your solar system in real-time, see current generation, your home’s load, export, and where applicable your batteries current charge.

The customisation is endless; you can even choose when and if you want to charge your battery from the grid during cheaper electricity tariffs, all from your smartphone or tablet!

Key Features:

- Real-Time Display

- Smartphone App or Web Portal
