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

In 2026 most quality 6.6kW systems cost $4,800 to $7,000 after the federal rebate, 10kW systems $7,400 to $11,000 and 13kW systems $9,700 to $13,800. We give a fixed price after a free on-site measure.

Is a battery worth it in 2026?

For many homes, yes. Feed-in tariffs are only a few cents while evening power costs 30 cents or more, and the federal Cheaper Home Batteries discount takes roughly $250 per kWh off the first 14kWh.

Which areas do you service?

Every suburb from Tweed Heads and the Tweed Coast through the Gold Coast, Logan, Redlands and Brisbane to North Brisbane, Moreton Bay and Bribie Island.

Do you repair systems installed by other companies?

Yes. We diagnose faults, replace inverters and upgrade systems from all mainstream brands, including ones whose installer has closed.

What size battery do I need?

Most Brisbane and Gold Coast homes land somewhere between 10kWh and 15kWh. We look at how much power you use after dark, whether you have an EV or pool pump, and how big your solar is, then pick a battery that covers your evenings without paying for capacity you will not use. The federal discount is most generous on the first 14kWh.

How long does a solar installation take?

Most home solar installs are done in a single day, and adding a battery takes about half a day more. From saying yes to switch-on is usually two to four weeks, depending on network approval from Energex or Essential Energy. Commercial jobs are scheduled around your trading hours.

What warranties come with a new system?

Quality panels usually carry a 12 to 25-year product warranty and a 25 to 30-year performance warranty, inverters 5 to 10 years and batteries around 10 years. We register the warranties for you, and if anything needs attention you call us, not an overseas help line.

What happens at the free on-site measure?

We visit your home, check the roof pitch, shading and condition, look over your switchboard and meter, and go through your power bills with you. It takes about an hour, and afterwards you get a fixed-price quote with no obligation and no pressure.
