Solar FAQs
Yes, you can usually expand your solar panel system later if your energy needs grow. Whether you're planning to get an electric vehicle or simply using more power at home, it’s possible to add more panels as long as you have enough roof space and your current inverter can support the additional capacity. Local rules and grid connection limits might also affect this, so it’s best to speak with your solar installer to check what’s possible and ensure the upgrade is both practical and cost-effective.
Most standard grid-connected solar panel systems in Australia will automatically shut off during a power outage due to a safety feature called anti-islanding, which prevents electricity from feeding back into the grid while workers are making repairs. However, if your system includes a solar battery with backup capability, it can continue to power your home during a blackout by switching to stored energy, keeping your lights and essential appliances running when the grid goes down.
Monitoring your solar panel system’s performance is straightforward with today’s technology. Most modern systems come with a display on the inverter and a mobile app or web portal that shows how much energy your system is generating and how much you're using. These tools let you view real-time and historical data, helping you track system health, spot issues early, and make sure your system is operating at its best.
To find out how much you’re paying for electricity in Australia, just take a look at your electricity bill, which shows your total usage, how much you're charged per kilowatt-hour, any daily supply fees, and solar feed-in credits if you’re exporting power back to the grid. For a clearer understanding or to make sure you're on the best plan, you can also use a government-run comparison tool like Energy Made Easy to explore other available offers.
Installing a home solar panel system usually takes between one and three days depending on the size of the system, the complexity of your roof, and whether any additional work like switchboard upgrades or battery installation is needed. While the physical installation is relatively quick, your installer will give you a clear timeline during the quoting process so you know exactly what to expect from start to finish.
