Good to know
Solar & electrical questions, answered straight
No jargon, no sales spin — just honest answers from a local Townsville team.
Are your solar installers certified, and do you use cyclone-rated gear in Townsville?
Yes. Our technicians are fully licensed electrical contractors accredited through Solar Accreditation Australia (SAA). Because Townsville sits in a designated cyclone zone, we only fit heavy-duty, tier-one panels on robust, cyclone-rated mounting frameworks engineered to handle severe coastal storms and high wind loads.
How much can I realistically save by switching to solar in North Queensland?
With Townsville getting 300+ days of sun a year, a properly sized system delivers immediate returns. Your exact saving depends on your daily usage and how much runs during daylight (air con, pool pumps and the like). We run a quick energy audit and design a system that maximises your return — most homes see a meaningful drop on the very next bill.
Is it worth adding a solar battery to my home?
A battery lets you store the cheap daytime power your panels make instead of exporting it for a small feed-in rate, then use it through the night to slash your grid reliance. Our smart hybrid packages also give you blackout backup — keeping lights, fridge and essentials running through storm season.
What's a Level 2 EV charger and why install one at home?
Charging from a normal 10A wall socket is slow and stresses old wiring. A dedicated Level 2 wall charger cuts charge times dramatically and adds smart safety monitoring. We can also sync it with your solar so your car charges on free, excess rooftop power during the day.
