Our solar panel installation process
Refining our solar panel installation process we have made the process as smooth and hassle-free as possible. Here’s a step-by-step guide to what you can expect when you decide to go solar with us.
Initial consultation and site inspection
First, we start with an initial consultation to understand your energy needs and goals. Our team will conduct a thorough site inspection to assess your home's suitability for solar, considering factors like roof angle, shading, and available space.
Customised solar system design
Based on the site inspection, our solar experts will design a customised solar power system tailored to your home. We use the best solar panels and inverters, ensuring maximum efficiency and reliability. Our design considers your current and future energy needs so you get a system built to last and grow with you.
Professional installation by accredited installers
When it's time for installation, our accredited solar installers in Brisbane take over. They're pros at what they do, ensuring each panel is installed securely and optimally. Safety is a top priority, and we adhere to all industry standards and regulations to ensure a flawless installation.
Post-installation support and maintenance
After installation, we don't just walk away. Our after-sales support is second to none. We'll guide you through getting your system up and running, including all the paperwork and applications for any available feed-in tariffs or rebates. Plus, we offer ongoing maintenance and support to keep your solar system performing at its best.
Types of solar systems we offer
Grid Connected Solar
Grid-tied solar systems are perfect for those who want to reduce their electricity bills while staying connected to the grid. These systems allow you to use solar power during the day and draw from the grid at night or during cloudy days. Plus, any excess solar energy you produce can be fed back into the grid, earning you credits on your power bill.
Battery and Hybrid Solar Systems
Hybrid solar systems offer the best of both worlds by combining solar panels with a hybrid inverter, which doesn’t need a battery to function. These inverters are perfect for home automation and provide greater control over your energy use. They also support adding a solar electric vehicle charger or other third-party devices. You can store excess solar energy in batteries for later use, ensuring power even during blackouts. Plus, you can install batteries at a later date if you prefer. This system maximises your energy independence while still allowing you to benefit from feed-in tariffs and reduced electricity bills.
Solar With EV Chargers
Grid-tied solar systems combined with electric vehicle (EV) chargers are a smart way to power your home and vehicle sustainably. These systems connect your solar panels to the grid and an EV charger, allowing you to use solar energy for your home and car. During sunny days, your solar panels can generate enough electricity to power your home and charge your EV. Excess energy can be fed back into the grid, earning you credits on your electricity bill. This setup offers convenience, cost savings, and a significant reduction in your carbon footprint.
Quality components and brands
Top-quality solar panels
We source our solar panels from leading solar companies known for their reliability and efficiency. Brands like LONGi, Jinko, Canadian Solar and REC are our go-to choices because they're tested and proven in the Australian market. These panels can withstand the harsh Brisbane climate, ensuring you get the most out of your investment.
Reliable inverters
The inverter is the heart of your solar system, converting solar energy into usable electricity. We use top-notch inverters from brands like GoodWe, Sungrow, Fronius, which are known for their excellent performance and durability. These inverters are crucial for maximising your solar system's efficiency.
Comprehensive warranties
All our components come with comprehensive warranties to give you peace of mind. Our solar panels and inverters have been covered for years, protecting you against unexpected issues. By choosing us, you're investing in a high-quality solar power system built to last. Our commitment to quality control ensures that you get a reliable, efficient, and long-lasting solar solution.
Government incentives and rebates
Solar rebates and incentives
The Australian government offers significant rebates for residential solar power systems through the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) commonly known as the solar rebate. When you install solar panels for your home, you earn Small-Scale Technology Certificates (STCs) that directly reduces your upfront installation cost.
Feed-in tariffs
In addition to rebates, you can also benefit from feed-in tariffs. This means you get paid for the excess solar energy your system generates and feeds back into the grid. Different electricity retailers offer various rates, so it's worth shopping around to get the best deal.
Choosing the Right Solar Power System
Different solar panel manufacturers use different technologies to generate renewable energy, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
We install brands that utilise TopCon, HJT, or PERC technologies. If you’d like to discuss which solar panels are best suited for your home, feel free to contact us.
Choosing the Right Solar Power System
TOPCon Panels
- Increased longevity
- Most cost-effective in the long run
- Superior performance during extremely hot days when compared to other panels
HJT Solar Panels
- High energy output
- Generates more energy in low-light when compared to other panels
- Great performance in heat and cold
PERC Solar Panels
- Cost effective
- Wildly adopted in the Australian market for commercial and residential solar
- More efficient than other P-Type panels
N-type solar panels include TOPCon and HJT panels. TOPCon Panels are wafers that have a thin layer of silicone and polycrystalline silicon. TOPCon is great for longevity when compared to other type of panels and has synergy with PERC technology. HJT or Heterojunction solar panels, use wafers that are lined with an amorphous silicon layer. HJT panels provide higher efficiency because of their bifacial design, which allows them to capture sunlight from both sides, increasing their energy output. They work better in low light, and are more stable in different temperatures compared to traditional solar panels.
PERC, or Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell, is a P-type solar panel that offers an excellent balance between efficiency and affordability, making them a great choice for those on a tighter budget, or larger scale operations. These cells feature an additional passivation layer on the back of the solar cell, enhancing their performance. Invented in Australia, PERC technology has been widely adopted, with most solar panels installed in Australia since 2020 utilising this innovation.
Solar Inverters
Solar inverters are crucial as they convert the DC electricity generated by your panels into AC electricity used in your home. There are string inverters, microinverters, and hybrid inverters. String inverters are cost-effective but less efficient if some panels are shaded.
Microinverters are installed on each panel, making the system more efficient in shaded conditions, at a higher cost. in 2024, more households are installing hybrid string inverters, as they are more efficient and can work with battery systems.
Battery Storage
Installation and Warranty
It’s important to install a battery that has an excellent warranty policy. However, without a certified installer, you will not be eligible for a warranty for battery brands such as Tesla. When you install a battery with Sunrays Power, you’re partnering with accredited experts who ensure your system is installed correctly and safely.
