Rooftop solar array on an Adelaide character property
Solar, battery & EV guides

Clear guides for making better energy decisions.

Learn what to look for on an electricity bill, what to compare in a quote and how solar, battery storage, EV charging and off-grid power can be designed around your property.

Start here

Three practical places to begin.

You don’t need to understand every product or technical term before speaking with an installer. Start with the information or decision already in front of you.

01 · Power bills

Understand your electricity bill

Find the usage, tariff, export and billing-period information that can help frame a solar or battery conversation.

Read the bill guide →
02 · Quote comparison

Compare solar and battery quotes

Check whether the proposed designs solve the same problem and compare equipment, backup, electrical work, assumptions and aftercare.

Use the quote checklist →
03 · Site assessment

Prepare for a site visit

See what information can help, what our team will assess on site and why you don’t need to diagnose or document everything yourself.

Choose by goal

Find the guide that matches your project.

Choose the outcome you’re considering. Each guide explains the useful questions, site details and decisions that should come before a product recommendation.

Solar

Plan a home solar system

Understand the roof, energy use, appearance, system scope and future plans that shape a useful solar recommendation.

Battery storage

Compare home battery options

Start with evening use, tariff strategy, backup expectations, existing solar and the job the battery needs to perform.

Existing system

Build on the system you already own

Learn what can help when assessing performance concerns, battery retrofits, upgrades, EV charging or another company’s quote.

Read the assessment guide →
EV charging

Plan an EV charger installation

Consider the vehicle, parking position, cable route, charging routine and how the charger should work with solar and battery storage.

Read the EV guide →
Commercial

Prepare for a commercial energy assessment

Bring operating hours, interval data, tariffs, infrastructure and future loads into one business-focused conversation.

Read the commercial guide →
Off-grid

Plan an off-grid energy system

Start with real loads, seasonal conditions, battery autonomy, generator strategy, site access and future expansion.

Read the off-grid guide →
Current programs and tariffs

Check the date, the assumptions and the official source.

Incentives, retailer plans, export settings and program rules can change. These guides explain what to confirm in writing and link to the current official information used at the time of review.

STCs & solar incentives

Understand how incentives appear in a quote

See where current incentive treatment is shown and what assumptions should be visible in the proposal.
