Solar Installers Queensland

As we have seen earlier that a major part of Queensland falls in STC zones 1 & 2, the price of the solar panel system in Queensland is lowest as compared to the other states. However, price in the regional Queensland area will be higher as compared to the metropolitan area of Brisbane as it includes the cost of transportation of goods and travelling cost.

A typical 6.6 kW solar panel system in Brisbane will range anywhere between $3500 – $5000 for a standard metropolitan installation. Standard metro installation comprises of installation done in a metro area on a single storey house with a tin roof. Price of a 6.6kW Solar Power System will vary for regional installations and for installations on a double or multi-storey house or on a house with a tile, decramastic roof. A 6.6kW Solar Power System price will also vary depending on the brand of panels or inverter.

Queensland has abundance of sunshine; hence it is considered as one of the best places for solar panel system installation. Considering an average of 4-5 hours of daily sunshine; a 6.6kW solar power system is expected to generate around 24kW – 26kW per day. Considering an average daily power generation of 24kW in a day and assuming that you pay 25c tariff to your electricity company, a 6.6kW Solar panel system in Queensland can help you to save $6 per day if you consume the entire power generated by the solar system. In this case, your yearly saving will be around $2190. However, in practical scenario the entire power generated by the solar system is not consumed and transferred back to the grid, for which you are entitled to get the benefit of feed in tariff at a rate of around 10c. In such cases, your yearly saving will reduce to the extent the power is not consumed by you and sent back to the electricity grid. In short, if you consume solar power, you save 25c (rate at which you are billed) and if you are not able to consume solar power, you save 10c (feed in tariff rate).

If your property is connected with the electricity grid, you can decide to go for a grid connected solar panel system in Queensland. This type of system helps you to save the electricity cost during the sunshine hours as it uses the electricity generated by the solar power system as against the costlier electricity from the grid. This system comes with solar panels and a conventional inverter connected with your electricity grid. This system works only if the electricity grid is on and stops working in blackouts or grid failure. This solar panel system works best for homes and commercials like offices or sheds where majority of power is consumed during daytime.

If you consume more power during after-hours or your electricity consumption is higher during night, you can go for a hybrid solar panel system in Queensland. A hybrid solar power system provides an option to store the excess unconsumed solar power in a battery which can be used after hours or during night time so that you can minimise your electricity usage from the costlier electricity from the grid. Hybrid solar power system comes with solar panels, a hybrid inverter, and a battery as per your requirement.

In case if your property is not connected with the electricity grid, you can go for off grid or standalone solar panel system in Queensland. This system comes with solar panels and batteries. This system usually proves to be very costly as number of batteries are required to store the power and the cost of batteries is quite high.

Currently, a 6.6kW solar panel system is mostly in demand in Queensland. A 6.6kW Solar Power System is widely accepted and most reliable solar power system for a residential property in Queensland. 6.6kW Solar Power System is suitable for large families or homes with lots of power-hungry appliances. A 6.6kW Solar Power System comes with 22 X 300w solar panels or 20 X 330w solar panels and a 5kW inverter. However, Solar panel system in Queensland also comes in different sizes like 5kW, 10kW, 20kW, so on and so forth depending on the consumption and requirement.
