I had a 13.3kW solar system with a 32kW GoodWe battery installed in Emerald a few years ago, and I’ve been extremely happy with the results. I was born in Mount Isa and later moved to Emerald, so I understand how important it is to have a reliable and efficient energy setup in regional Queensland. Before installing solar, my electricity bills were through the roof — around $1,500 per quarter. Since having the system installed, my bills have dropped to almost the minimum charge, which has made a huge difference. From the initial consultation through to installation, everything was handled professionally, efficiently and with great attention to detail. The team were knowledgeable, friendly and easy to deal with, and the workmanship was excellent. A great investment, a great result, and one of the best decisions I’ve made for my home. I’d happily recommend this company to anyone considering solar and battery storage.

We recently had our solar system installed by Nexa Solar at our home and couldn't be happier with the experience. The whole team was highly professional, friendly and easy to deal with from start to finish. The installation was very neat and everything was explained clearly. Great communication and excellent service throughout. Would definitely recommend Nexa Solar to anyone considering solar.
I would recommend this firm to anyone. They made getting my Solar Battery so easy. Mike was very in-depth with his knowledge of Solar. Kelly from the office couldn't have been more helpful and the installers guided is through how to use it. We are very happy with Nexa Solar
Very happy with the recent installation of both panels & battery. Ellie was great organising the actual installation and nothing was ever too much trouble. The actual Install team were terrific. Once again nothing was too much trouble and he answered all my questions and showed me the app. Thank you. Regards Helen Murdoch
The tradies that installed my system they were respectful and polite. On completion they left the site clean and tidy. They worked like trohans all day.
Fast service from enquiry to quote and sales to fitting within 2 weeks. Very knowledgeable both fitters and sales. Price even with rebate was a lot but good quality can't be cheap and great customer support, constant phone calls with updates and fitting times and even refund for panels they couldn't fit. Eventually it will pay for itself so I'm happy
Nexa Solar are the only way to go. Friendly staff. Best equipment. Value for money and no ongoing hidden costs
Great communication, very friendly and answered questions in a way that didn't confuse us. Product is working exceptionally well
Great work by the Nexa Solar team. My solar panels were installed promptly and on time, and the support team is readily accessible for team. Thanks again.
Have just had Nexa solar supply 15 kw battery to our home. The service was fantastic, installation was on time clean sand professional.
STOP BUYING BACK YOUR OWN POWER
Still Getting Power Bills After Installing Solar?
Many solar owners generate excess energy during the day, export it to the grid for a relatively small return, then buy electricity back at a much higher rate after sunset.
A properly designed home solar battery stores more of the energy your panels already produce, helping you power your home at night and reduce the electricity you need to purchase from the grid.
Your solar should work harder for your home, not just the energy retailer.

Battery upgrades for existing solar
Already Have Solar? Add a Battery and Use More of Your Own Power
Your solar system may generate plenty of energy during the day, but without a battery, much of that excess power can be exported to the grid for a relatively small return.
A properly designed home solar battery stores the energy you are already generating so it can be used at night, during peak periods and, when correctly configured, during a blackout.
Use more of your own solar energy
Buy less electricity from the grid
Protect essential circuits during outages
Prepare for future energy needs
Move your power bills closer to zero
Upgrade solar without starting again
Whether you already have solar or need a complete solar and battery system, Nexa Solar can assess your existing equipment, electricity usage and future needs before recommending the right solution.
GENERATE. STORE. USE.
How Your Solar and Battery System Works
Solar Powers Your Home
Your panels first cover the property’s daytime energy use, including the home, shed, pumps and equipment.
Excess Solar Charges the Battery
Energy that is not immediately needed is stored instead of being sent straight back to the grid.
The Battery Powers Your Home at Night
When solar production drops, stored energy helps cover evening and overnight electricity usage.
The Grid Becomes the Backup
If the battery is depleted, the grid supplies the balance. Compatible systems can also protect selected circuits during an outage.
Battery technology we install
GoodWe Solar Battery Installation in Rockhampton
Nexa Solar installs GoodWe home battery systems for homeowners looking to store more of their solar energy and reduce their reliance on the grid.
Before recommending a battery, we assess:
Your existing solar and inverter
Daytime generation and exports
Evening and overnight usage
Required battery capacity
Blackout protection needs
Future solar or EV plans
This allows us to design a GoodWe battery system around your actual energy usage rather than selling you a generic package that may be too large, too small or incompatible with your existing system.

Solar Battery Questions
How much does a solar battery cost in Rockhampton?
In Rockhampton, installed prices after the current federal discount are roughly $4,000–$6,000 for 5 kWh, $7,000–$10,000 for 10 kWh, and $11,500–$17,000 for 15–20 kWh. The right size and final price depend on your energy use, existing solar system, backup needs and installation requirements.
Will my battery work during a blackout?
Only batteries and inverters designed and configured for backup can operate during an outage. We will explain which circuits can be supported and what additional equipment may be required.
Can a battery take my power bill to zero?
A correctly sized system can substantially reduce grid purchases, but results depend on usage, solar generation, system size, weather and fixed supply charges. We model the system around your actual data.
How long does battery installation take?
Timing depends on the system and site requirements. Once your assessment and design are complete, our team will confirm the installation scope and expected schedule before work begins.
Can I add a battery to my existing solar system?
In many cases, yes. We first assess your existing inverter, panel system, electricity usage and available installation location to determine compatibility and the most practical upgrade path.
What size battery does my home need?
The right capacity depends on your evening and overnight usage, excess daytime solar, backup requirements and future plans. Bigger is not automatically better. It needs to match your property.
Is my current inverter compatible with a battery?
Some systems can accept a compatible battery directly, while others require an AC-coupled solution or inverter upgrade. We check this before recommending equipment.
Do you install GoodWe batteries?
Yes. Nexa Solar installs GoodWe battery systems and can assess whether a GoodWe solution is suitable for your existing solar, property and energy goals.
