Why Launceston homes go solar

Built for Tasmanian conditions

Cooler weather and short winter days mean every kWh counts. Solar still pays its way, especially with a battery for the evening.

Daytime

Solar works in Tasmania too

Panels produce well on clear days, even in the cooler months. More of your daytime use comes off your roof instead of the grid.

Evening

Keep the sun for tonight

A battery stores spare solar from the afternoon and uses it after sunset, when you'd otherwise buy power.

Storms

Backup when the power drops

With the right battery and setup, essential circuits can keep running in an outage. We explain what your system will and won't do.

Winter

Heating after dark

Heat pumps and heating run after sunset in winter. A battery lets you use stored solar instead of buying power at night.

How we estimate this
  • We assume a flat rate of about 30c/kWh. Your Energy Assessment uses the rate on your actual bill.
  • Feed-in tariff of 9.276c/kWh for solar you export, Tasmania's regulated minimum for 2026-27.
  • Each kW of solar in Launceston makes about 3.8kWh a day on average. Batteries use about 90% of their size each day.
  • Savings are shown as a range of 15% either side, and can't exceed your power bill. EV packages add about 7kWh a day of home charging.

ESTIMATE ONLY. Prices include GST and the federal solar and battery discounts, and are not a quote. Your price is confirmed after your free Energy Assessment. Your quote may include extras your home needs, such as switchboard upgrades, racking for tricky roofs, a new or upgraded inverter, optimisers for shading, blackout backup wiring or three-phase work. Battery discounts change over time.

Off-Grid is designed, not packaged

Every off-grid property is different: usage, generator, distance from the grid. Talk to a specialist and we'll design it with you.

Launceston FAQs

Questions Launceston homeowners ask us

How much does solar cost in Launceston?
Our 6.66kW solar package starts from $5,490 Estimate, including GST and the federal solar discount. Your exact price depends on your roof, switchboard and power use, and we confirm it after your free Energy Assessment.
Can I add a battery to my existing solar?
In most cases, yes. We check your existing inverter and system at your Energy Assessment and recommend a battery that works with it, or tell you if an upgrade makes more sense.
Will a battery keep my power on in a blackout?
Only if the system is set up for backup. Not every battery does this automatically. We explain what your setup will cover before you buy.
Is there a battery rebate in Tasmania?
Tasmania has no state solar or battery rebate at the moment. The federal Cheaper Home Batteries discount still reduces the price of eligible batteries, and we confirm the current figure at your assessment.
Will solar and a battery take my home off the grid?
No. Solar and a battery cut how much power you buy, but your home stays connected. Going fully off-grid needs a separate system design, which we do for rural properties.
Do you install outside Launceston?
Yes. We cover the surrounding area of northern Tasmania. Enter your postcode in the form and we'll confirm.

    “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.”

    “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”
