Solar Installation Sydney
Sydney is Australia's largest solar market with over 600,000 rooftop installations. With 6.7 peak sun hours and rising electricity costs, solar delivers excellent returns for Sydney homeowners.
Why Sydney is Great for Solar
6.7 Peak Sun Hours Daily
Sydney enjoys excellent solar irradiance, especially in the western suburbs. A 6.6kW system typically generates 26-28kWh per day.
High Electricity Prices
Sydney electricity rates average 30-35c/kWh, making solar savings substantial. Prices continue to rise faster than inflation.
Large Roof Spaces
Sydney's suburban housing typically offers ample north-facing roof space, ideal for larger solar systems.
Strong Grid Infrastructure
Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy networks support solar well, with clear export limits and straightforward connection processes.
