Solar, battery & EV-ready systems
Solar & Battery Installation in Currambine
Solar and storage designed around your household’s day: when you use power, when your panels generate, and what you plan to plug in next.
Solar installation
Sized around your household’s day.
The same panels suit different households very differently. A home that’s busy in the morning and evening needs a different design from one that’s occupied all day.
Usage-based system design
We look at when your household uses power, not just how much, so the design matches your routine.

Generation versus consumption
A realistic picture of when your panels will produce and when you’ll use the energy, before you decide on size.
Inverter selection
An inverter matched to your array, your supply and any battery you want now or later.
Upgrading existing solar
More generation or new equipment for a system that no longer suits your household.

Battery storage
Evening power from your own panels.
For households that use most of their energy after the sun has gone down, a battery can move solar generation into the evening. How much that helps depends on your usage and how much surplus you produce.
Matching storage to your evenings
Battery capacity is chosen from your evening and overnight demand, and how much solar you actually have to spare.
Home battery installation
Batteries installed to suit your switchboard, supply and solar equipment.
Solar, battery and EV together
Charging a car adds a large load. We plan how storage and charging work with your solar.
Existing solar upgrades
Adding storage to a system you already have through a compatible setup, after checking your inverter.
Backup power
Not every battery provides backup in an outage. If it matters, we design for it from the start.

FAQs
Solar, battery and EV questions
Quick answers to common questions. If yours isn't here, give us a call.
Yes. Panels generate in daylight, so households that use most of their energy then use more of their own solar directly. Households that use more in the evening can benefit from storage. We look at your pattern before recommending a design.
It depends on how much surplus solar you produce, how much you use after sunset and what you want the battery to do. We discuss these with you and don’t promise a particular saving.
An EV adds a large load that you can often schedule. A charger on the same installation as your solar can use more of your own generation, and storage can help cover charging after dark. We plan the three together.
Usually, but it depends on the inverter and the battery. A hybrid inverter manages both, while an AC-coupled battery adds its own inverter. We check compatibility before recommending anything.
Federal incentives for solar and batteries exist, and their rules, amounts and eligibility conditions change over time. Some depend on your system and installation date. We explain what applies when we prepare your proposal, and the Clean Energy Regulator publishes current requirements.
Often, subject to your inverter, roof space, electrical supply and network requirements. We assess the existing system first.
Not automatically. Standard grid-connected solar shuts down during an outage for safety. Backup needs compatible equipment designed and installed for it, and what it can run depends on the system.
