The Story
For this Bardon home, the decision to go solar came down to long-term value. With energy prices only heading in one direction, they wanted a system sized to eliminate most of their electricity bill from day one.
Connect Energy delivered a 18.05kW solar system with 32.2kWh of integrated battery storage, designed to maximise self-consumption year round.
“Brett, Leonie and their team were experienced, professional, efficient and considerate from the beginning quoting process to the final installation. Highly highly recommend if you are looking for trustworthy quality providers of solar and batteries.”
The Solution
Connect Energy installed a complete solar and battery solution for this Bardon home, selecting premium equipment suited to the site’s generation profile.
System Performance
The system generates 26,226 kWh per year, with the battery storing excess daytime generation for evening and overnight use. This covers 78% of the household’s annual energy consumption.
Financial Impact
This system significantly reduces the household’s electricity costs, with savings that grow as energy prices rise.
Government incentives applied to this project included Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) and the Queensland Cheaper Home Batteries Program, which together reduced the upfront cost by over $16,682.
