Solar Questions Answered

Is my roof suitable for solar in Wollongong?
Most Wollongong homes are well suited. North-facing roof space is ideal, but east and west-facing panels still perform well given the region's solar resource. We'll assess your roof during the design phase and be upfront if the layout creates any limitations.
What government rebates are available?
The federal STC (Small-scale Technology Certificate) scheme reduces the upfront cost of most residential systems. The value depends on system size and the current STC price. We handle the rebate paperwork as part of the install.
Can I add a battery later?
Yes, and it's worth planning for this upfront. Installing a battery-ready or hybrid inverter from the start makes adding storage later much simpler and cheaper. We can advise on the best approach based on your budget and timeline.
