Jinko Solar
A core panel family considered where it suits the roof layout and wider system discussion.
- Discussed against usable roof area and shade
- Matched to the board and inverter design
- Considered alongside battery and EV plans
Solar panels · Adelaide
Panels that fit the roof—and the way you use power.
Jinko and AIKO are the core panel families we discuss where suitable. A useful recommendation starts with your roof, shade, usage, switchboard and plans for a future battery or EV charger—not a model list.

What shapes the panel choice
The roof and the household come before the brand label.
Usable roof area, shade, household use, the switchboard and future battery or EV plans all shape the design before a panel family is selected.
- Usable roof area
- How many faces you can use, their orientation and pitch, and how many panels each face can carry cleanly.
- Shade & layout
- Trees, neighbouring buildings, chimneys and string layout all change what is practical on site.
- Usage & future plans
- When power is used, plus any future battery, EV charging or appliance plans that should be allowed for now.
- Board & inverter design
- How panels pair with the proposed inverter, switchboard, export limits and any battery plans.
- System configuration
- The final panel family and configuration are confirmed for the property, rather than promised from a webpage.
Main panel families
Jinko and AIKO—panel families discussed around the property.
Neither is automatically right for every roof. We discuss each family only after the roof, shade, usage, board and wider system plan are clear.
AIKO
The other core panel family considered where suitable. As with Jinko, the decision turns on roof, shade, usage, board and future plans—not a brand preference in isolation.
- Discussed against the same roof and shade checks
- Selected in the context of the whole system
- Confirmed when the property is assessed
How we choose on site
Usage and property first. Brand second.
Before anyone locks a panel family, we look at how the home uses power, what the roof allows, the switchboard and whether storage or EV charging is part of the plan.
- Recent bills and when power is used
- Roof photos, shade notes and access
- Existing solar, inverter or board constraints
- Battery, backup or EV plans that change the design

Panel questions
Straight answers before model talk.
Is one brand always better?
No. Fit depends on usable roof area, shade, appearance, budget, inverter design and what is available for the job. We explain the trade-offs for your property.
Can you work with panels I already have?
Yes. Existing arrays and older module brands belong in an existing-system assessment—see our existing-system support page.
What should I send first?
A recent electricity bill, suburb, any roof or shade notes, and whether a battery or EV is planned. That is enough to start a useful conversation.
Start with a conversation
Talk through your property and what you would like to achieve.
We’ll check whether solar makes sense and which panel path fits the property. A recent bill or quote is optional and can provide helpful context.
