SOLAR INSTALLATION

Solar power systems
for home & business.

Good system design starts with your property and your power use. See what makes sense for your roof, your day and what you might add later.

01 / FOR YOUR HOME

Residential solar panels

Plan a home solar power system around your roof, shade and electricity use. We consider panel layout, inverter options and when your household uses the most power, including any future battery or EV charger.

02 / FOR YOUR BUSINESS

Commercial solar installation

Explore rooftop solar for an Auckland warehouse, office, retail or industrial site. Review daytime demand, usable roof space and network export constraints to shape a commercial solar system around your business.

Discuss a commercial site

BATTERY STORAGE & EV CHARGING

Use more of the
solar you generate.

Plan how you’ll use your solar power when it’s available and what you’d like to save for later.

03 / STORE

Solar battery storage

Store surplus solar energy for evening use. Discuss battery capacity, inverter compatibility and whether backup power is part of your brief. Storage design starts with your property’s loads and the times you want to use stored energy.

Explore battery options

04 / CHARGE

Home & workplace EV charging

Plan an EV charger for your Auckland home, workplace or small fleet. Review parking, switchboard capacity and charging schedules, including solar-aware charging with compatible equipment.

FROM FIRST BILL TO HANDOVER

How your project takes shape.

Start with a recent power bill, your Auckland suburb and what you’d like the system to do.

  1. 01

    Understand your site

    Review your electricity use, roof and priorities. For businesses, interval data helps show when your site uses the most power.

  2. 02

    Design your system

    Work through panel layout, inverter sizing and storage or charging options. Review expected generation and the assumptions behind it.

  3. 03

    Install and hand over

    Plan installation and any required network approvals. At handover, go through system monitoring and operation.

SYSTEM DESIGN & SOLAR COSTS

A solar proposal
built around your site.

A useful solar installation quote explains the equipment, the work involved and the assumptions behind expected generation. Start with the details that shape your project.

YOUR ROOF

Roof layout & generation

Orientation, shade, roof condition and access influence the panel layout. Review expected seasonal generation for the actual site and how it lines up with your electricity use.

YOUR ELECTRICITY USE

Size the system around demand

Recent electricity bills help establish a starting point. For a business, interval data can show daytime loads. Include planned changes such as an EV, new equipment or longer operating hours.

YOUR INSTALLATION QUOTE

Understand what the price covers

Ask for panels, inverter, mounting, installation and electrical work to be clearly identified. Roof access, switchboard changes, metering and network connection requirements can affect the total project cost.

YOUR NEXT STEP

Plan batteries & EV charging

Consider storage and charging alongside the solar system. Discuss equipment compatibility, the circuits you want backed up and the times vehicles are available to charge.

Discuss your solar installation

AUCKLAND SOLAR FAQ

Your solar
questions, answered.

What affects the cost of solar panel installation in Auckland?

System size, roof access, panels, inverter, electrical work and any battery or EV charger affect the price. A site-specific solar quote should identify the equipment and installation scope, along with any network or metering allowances.

What size solar power system does my property need?

Start with your electricity use and when that demand occurs. Roof space, shade and future loads also matter. For a commercial property, interval data helps compare solar generation with the times your business uses electricity.

Do solar panels have to face north?

A north-facing roof is often a good starting point in New Zealand, but other orientations can suit the property’s daily electricity use. Shading, roof pitch and available space should be assessed before choosing a layout.

Can I add a battery after installing solar?

Often you can. The options depend on your inverter, switchboard and available space. If battery storage is a future priority, discuss compatibility and possible upgrade work in the initial system design.

Will solar work during a power cut?

A standard grid-connected solar system shuts down during a power cut. Backup requires compatible equipment and a system designed for the circuits you want to keep running. Ask for the backup scope to be clearly identified.

Can I charge my EV from my solar panels?

Yes, when solar generation is available and your vehicle is plugged in. Compatible chargers can adjust charging to use surplus solar. Charging performance depends on the system, the charger and the property’s other electricity loads.

What needs checking before connecting solar to the grid?

Review the relevant electricity network’s connection requirements, possible export limits, metering and switchboard suitability. The requirements vary by property and system, so include them in the project review before finalising the installation.

What should I provide for a commercial solar proposal?

Share the site address, roof type, operating hours and recent power bills. Interval electricity data, any lease or roof access considerations, and planned equipment or fleet charging help shape a commercial system proposal.
