Solar quotes & panel installation in Townsville

After a straight solar quote from a Townsville solar company that won't muck you around? We design and install high-efficiency systems engineered for the North Queensland climate — SAA-accredited, locally owned, and quoted upfront with no pushy sales.

Built for North Queensland

300+ days of sun is an asset worth engineering for

With North Queensland receiving over 300 days of intense tropical sunshine annually, shifting to clean solar energy is one of the smartest investments a property owner can make. But our distinct climate demands specialised gear. We only deploy tier-one, highly resilient panels and robust, cyclone-rated mounting systems built explicitly to withstand coastal elements — so your investment performs for decades, not seasons.

Built for NQ roofs

Tin, tile or two-storey — we design to your roof

No two Townsville rooftops are the same. We measure yours in person, check the shading and orientation, then design the panel layout, string design and inverter sizing around it — not a one-size-fits-all package quoted over the phone.

Every array goes up on corrosion-resistant, cyclone-rated racking suited to our wind and salt-air, so your investment performs for decades, not seasons.

The brain of your system

Quality inverters, wired tidy and built to last

Panels get the attention, but the inverter is what works hardest — every single day, in our heat. We fit proven inverters from the brands that actually last up here and wire them neatly, with proper DC isolation and labelling, so the whole system performs and stays safe for the long haul.

It's also where we build in your future: a hybrid inverter means adding battery storage or an EV charger down the track is straightforward, not a rip-and-replace job.

Why On Point

Solar built around your home — and your bills

No two Townsville rooftops are the same. A west-facing roof in Kirwan, a two-storey home in North Ward and a breezy block out at Bushland Beach all call for different panel placement, string design and inverter sizing. That's why we never quote a one-size-fits-all package over the phone. We come out, measure your roof, check for shading and obstructions, and review twelve months of power bills so the system we design actually matches the way your household uses energy.

It also pays to install with people who understand the local grid. We handle your Ergon Energy application, the metering changeover and every compliance certificate, then commission the system properly so you can watch your generation and savings from day one. Because we're a locally owned Townsville business — not a fly-in sales operation — the same team that quotes your job is the team that installs it and looks after it for years afterward.

Quality hardware is non-negotiable in the tropics. Cheap panels and flimsy racking simply don't survive North Queensland's UV, humidity and wind loads. We install tier-one panels from trusted manufacturers like Jinko, JA Solar and Winaico, paired with Fronius, Goodwe or Sungrow inverters, all mounted on corrosion-resistant, cyclone-rated racking rated for our region. Every component is backed by manufacturer warranties and our own workmanship guarantee.

Most importantly, we keep the whole process transparent. You'll get an itemised, upfront quote with no hidden extras, a clear explanation of your expected output and payback period, and honest advice on whether adding a battery now or later makes sense for your situation. If solar isn't the right call for your roof, we'll tell you that too — straight answers are how we've earned a five-star reputation from Kirwan to North Ward and right across the Townsville region.

Save on the upfront cost

Rebates & incentives we sort out for you

There's real money on the table for Queensland solar and battery owners — but the rules change and the paperwork is fiddly. We track what's current and apply every dollar you're entitled to straight to your quote.

Federal solar STC discount

Small-scale Technology Certificates take thousands off the upfront cost of a new system. We apply the discount directly to your quote and handle all the paperwork.

Cheaper Home Batteries Program

The federal battery rebate can substantially cut the cost of adding storage. We confirm your current eligibility and bake it into your fixed-price quote.

Ergon feed-in tariff

Excess solar you export earns a feed-in credit on your Ergon bill. We design your system so you self-consume the most valuable power first, then export the rest.

Rebate programs, eligibility and feed-in rates change over time and depend on your property and retailer. We confirm exactly what applies to you — in writing — as part of your free quote.

Common questions

How do I get a solar quote in Townsville?

Call us on 0422 677 121 or request a quote online and a local technician comes out to look at your roof, check your shading and review your power bills. You get a fixed, written, upfront solar quote — no obligation and no high-pressure sales.

How many solar panels do I need in Townsville?

It depends on your power usage, roof space and budget. We size every system to your actual consumption — most Townsville homes land between 6.6kW and 13.2kW. We recommend the right fit during your free consultation.

Are your panels built for cyclones and tropical weather?

Yes. We use tier-one panels paired with cyclone-rated mounting systems specifically chosen to withstand North Queensland wind ratings, heat and coastal salt-air.

Do you handle the rebates and grid connection?

We manage the entire process — STC rebate paperwork, compliance certificates and the final Ergon Energy grid connection, so you have nothing to chase.

Will solar really cut my power bill?

With 300+ days of sun a year, a correctly sized system can dramatically reduce or eliminate daytime grid usage. Add a battery and you can offset evening usage too.
