What Size Solar System Do I Need?
While everyone’s needs are different, in most Australian states it makes a lot of sense to maximise the roof space you have with solar panels. Sometimes states will put limits on your system size.
How much will a solar system save me?
Different solar system sizes will save different amounts of money. In general it is usually possible to either:
- Eliminate your power bill entirely OR
- Get a good Return On Investment (ROI) of 4 – 5 years or less!
Can I have more panels than my inverter size?
Yes! Over-sizing your solar array is a great idea! It actually optimises your system somewhat which not everybody knows. However, you should be cautious not to over-size more than 33%. So if the inverter is 5kW, you could put 6.66kW of panels on the roof.
