SE QLD is one of the best solar markets in the world - sun-hours, government rebates, and rising grid prices all push the math toward solar. The installers on HelpSorted cover residential PV (panels), batteries, hot water systems, and grid-tied or off-grid set-ups.

For a standard 6.6kW system installed in SE QLD, expect $5,500-$8,500 after the Small-scale Technology Certificate (STC) rebate is applied. Add $9,000-$15,000 for a 10kWh battery. Payback periods are typically 4-7 years on PV alone, 8-12 years with a battery, depending on your usage pattern.

For solar hot water specifically (separate from PV), expect $4,500-$7,500 installed and the system pays back in 4-6 years through grid hot-water savings. Look for Clean Energy Council Accredited installers - that''s the standard the federal rebate requires, and most reputable SE QLD installers carry it. Listings here flag CEC accreditation where the operator has provided it.

Roof condition matters - if your roof is over 20 years old, factor a re-roof BEFORE solar install, not after. Removing and re-installing panels later costs $2,000-$4,000 and is a real expense people forget. Get a roofer''s opinion alongside the solar quote.

Common questions

Solar Power in Runcorn.

What size solar system do I need?+
Match the system to daytime usage. A typical SE QLD home runs 5-7kWh during the day; a 6.6kW system generates 25-30kWh/day average. Bigger systems make sense if you have a battery or run pool pumps / aircon during the day.
Are the government rebates still available?+
Yes - the federal STC rebate is built into the install price (you'll see it as a 'discount' on the quote). The QLD government has run various battery rebate programs separately; ask installers about current state-level offers.
How long do solar panels last?+
25 years on the panels (with output warranty), 10-15 years on the inverter. Batteries are 8-12 years. Total system life is 25 years if you replace the inverter once.
Can I add a battery later?+
Yes if your inverter is hybrid-ready. Many SE QLD installers now default to hybrid inverters specifically to leave the battery option open. Ask before you commit to PV-only.
Do I need to check my roof first?+
Yes - if your roof is over 20 years old, plan the re-roof BEFORE solar install. Removing panels for roof work later costs $2,000-$4,000. Get a roofer's quote alongside the solar quote.
What's a feed-in tariff and does it still matter?+
It's what your retailer pays you per kWh exported to the grid. Rates dropped sharply from 2017 onward (now 5-8c/kWh vs the old 44c). Self-consumption via a battery is now where the real savings live, not export.
