💰 Solar Costs, Rebates & Savings
Know Your Options Before You Invest
The cost of solar panels on the Gold Coast depends on system size, equipment selection, roof conditions and installation requirements. Eligible solar PV systems may qualify for federal Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs), which can reduce the upfront cost.
Gold Coast homes are in South East Queensland, where electricity retailers offer their own feed-in tariff plans for eligible exported solar electricity. Comparing your electricity plan alongside your solar quote can help you understand the potential value of your system.
Eligible Queensland rental properties may also qualify for the Supercharged Solar for Renters program, with rebates of up to $3,500 for eligible landlords, subject to current program requirements.
- System Size — selected according to your household electricity use.
- Federal STCs — available for eligible solar PV systems.
- Solar Exports — retailers may provide a feed-in tariff for surplus electricity.
- Rental Solar — eligible landlords may access current Queensland solar incentives.
⚡ Find The Right Solar System
Choose Solar Capacity Around Your Household
Your ideal solar system on the Gold Coast depends on how much electricity you use, when you use it and how much suitable roof space you have. A larger system isn't automatically the right choice.
- 6.6kW Solar System — for moderate household use; a practical option for many homes with moderate electricity consumption and suitable roof space.
- 10kW Solar System — for higher energy use, with more generation capacity for larger households or properties with greater electricity requirements.
- 13.2kW Solar System — for larger energy demands, suiting homes with substantial electricity use and enough suitable roof space.
- Solar + Battery — store your excess solar, keeping surplus daytime generation available for use later when your panels aren't generating as much.

🏠 Solar Designed For Gold Coast Conditions
Get More From Your Rooftop
The Gold Coast receives strong sunlight throughout the year, giving many properties good potential for rooftop solar generation. However, your actual system output depends on factors such as roof orientation, shading, panel placement, system capacity and household electricity consumption.
A properly designed Gold Coast solar system should take these factors into account while considering when your household uses the most electricity.
