Residential Solar

Harness Clean, Sustainable Solar Energy to Power Your Home

Switching to solar can cut your electricity bills and carbon footprint. Solar panel prices have dropped significantly, making it a smart investment. With rising electricity demand and costs, now is the perfect time to go solar!

Types of systems

Grid - Tied System

A grid-connected solar system is cost effective and offers great returns. It uses solar power during the day and exports excess to the grid. At night, it switches back to the grid. 

Ideal for those with daytime usage or who can run appliances like washers, dryers, hot water, pools, spas, and EV chargers during the day.

System Requirements:
Solar Panels
Grid-Tied Inverter
Energy Meter

Hybrid System

A Hybrid system combines Grid-Tied and Off-Grid benefits. It uses battery storage to optimise solar generation, reducing solar export and using stored power at night.

Connected to the grid for backup, it also provides power during outages. Ideal for those with high power usage outside sunlight hours and frequent outages.

System Requirements:
Solar Panels
Hybrid Inverter
Battery Storage
EPS Control Box
Energy Meter

Off - Grid System

Off-Grid systems require battery storage to power appliances when solar panels aren’t generating. It’s crucial to understand your power needs and size your battery for 1-2 days without recharging.
A backup generator is recommended.

Though complex, Off-Grid systems can be more cost-effective than running power lines to remote areas.

System Requirements:
Solar Panels
Off-Grid Inverter
Battery Storage
Backup Generator (optional)

The products to make this work

To set up a residential solar system, you’ll need several key components, each playing a crucial role in ensuring your system operates efficiently and effectively. By carefully selecting and integrating these components, you can create a robust and efficient solar energy system tailored to your home’s needs.

Solar Panels

PV (Photovoltaic) panels are the foundation of any solar solution, determining electricity generation.

Quality panels and a well-designed plan ensure optimal performance. We supply premium panels from Tier 1 manufacturers, global leaders in Solar PV.

We are proud to partner with:

Solar Inverter

Solar Inverters are the brains of your solar system, managing solar generation, house/load consumption, battery recharge/discharge whilst also exporting any surplus energy, all at the same time!

We partner with suppliers that offer a range of single phase, three phase, Grid-tied and Hybrid inverters from 3kW – 20kW.

Battery Storage

Battery storage will maximise savings on your power bills and give you true energy independence. Lithium-ion batteries give you the power to store and use your energy in your home when and how you want.

All our batteries are modular and can scale to suit homes of any size.

SolaX IES Battery System

Every quality solar installation should offer you real time monitoring so you can see your system work for you. We work with SolaX Cloud Remote Monitoring to have your system at your fingertips.

Monitor your battery in real-time, see its current charge, historical charging data, and even choose when and if you want to charge your battery from the grid during cheaper electricity tariffs, all from your smartphone or tablet.
