Typical solar prices by system size
These are the ranges we compare your quote against. They are typical installed prices for a good-quality system, including GST and after the federal STC rebate.
What moves the price
- Panel and inverter brands. Premium brands cost more but usually come with longer warranties.
- Your roof. Tile, steep or double-storey roofs take longer to install on.
- Switchboard work. Older switchboards sometimes need an upgrade before solar can be connected.
- Extras. Batteries, EV chargers and monitoring are priced separately, so we review those line by line.
