Sarah & Tom
Wollongong, NSW · 6.6 kW Trina + Sungrow

"Bill went from $620 a quarter to $48. We talked to Sam on the Wednesday and they had panels on the roof three weeks later. No pushy sales, no upselling. Sam answered every question and the installer was on time, polite, and finished in a day. The rebate was already on the invoice — no claiming, no waiting."

Saving: $2,288/yr
Vinh N.
Reservoir, VIC · 10 kW + 10 kWh battery

"Thought it was too good to be true. The rebate came off the price before I paid anything. Whole job done in a day and the bill is basically zero in summer now. Even my mate who's an electrician said the install was tidier than he would've done himself."

Saving: $2,184/yr
Margaret K.
Toowoomba, QLD · 8 kW

"No pushy sales calls. They picked the right installer for my place and Andy answered all my dumb questions along the way. Felt like we had someone in our corner. The QLD Battery Booster was something I'd never heard of and they walked me through it patiently. The whole experience felt unusually grown-up for a solar quote."

Saving: $1,640/yr
James W.
Mandurah, WA · 6.6 kW + 13.5 kWh battery

"Bought a battery off the back of the WA Residential Battery Scheme — $5,000 off plus the federal $5,000 made it a no-brainer. Installer was Synergy-approved and got it on the DEBS time-of-export tariff. Selling electricity to the grid during the 3pm-9pm peak is properly satisfying."

Saving: Estimated $2,400/yr
Aishah R.
Logan, QLD · 9.9 kW

"Knocked half a star off because the install was delayed by two weeks for DNSP approval (Energex took ages). Everything else was great — the chat was honest, the installer was good, and the rebate was on the invoice. The QLD Battery Booster rebate is the next thing I'm doing."

Saving: $1,920/yr
Brad P.
Newcastle, NSW · 8 kW + battery

"Empowering Homes loan covered the rest after the federal STC and NSW PDRS rebates. Zero out of pocket on install day and the loan repayment is less than my old electricity bill. Brilliant. Highly recommend."

Saving: $2,640/yr
Mei C.
Frankston, VIC · 6.6 kW

"Solar Homes rebate plus the federal STC got me a 6.6 kW system for $2,800 net. Three quotes I'd had elsewhere wanted $5-6k for the same gear. The matching service paid for itself instantly. Sam (specialist) was a champion."

Saving: $1,420/yr
Tane H.
Cairns, QLD · 6.6 kW

"STC Zone 2 in Cairns meant the federal rebate was bigger than I expected. Whole install done from quiz to panels-on-roof in 31 days. The installer they matched me with was 20km from my place and turned up exactly when they said."

Saving: Estimated $1,700/yr
Erin K.
Adelaide, SA · 10 kW + 13.5 kWh battery

"South Australia has wild daytime export rates so a battery just makes sense here. Federal Cheaper Home Batteries rebate took $5k off the Powerwall and the panels were stacked with STC. Bill is now negative in summer."

Saving: Estimated $2,900/yr
Marcus L.
Perth, WA · 6.6 kW

"Specialist call was 14 minutes, no fluff, gave me a number for my address and matched me with an installer who specialised in tile roofs. Tile roofs are a pain — most installers refuse them or charge extra. The match was spot on."

Saving: $1,580/yr
Liam D.
Penrith, NSW · 6.6 kW + 10 kWh battery

"Took advantage of the NSW Empowering Homes interest-free loan and the federal stuff. Repayment is on autopay and less than my old AGL bill. Should've done this two years ago."

Saving: $2,140/yr
Olivia M.
Hobart, TAS · 5 kW

"Tasmania doesn't have a state rebate which I was a bit sad about, but the Energy Saver Loan covered the whole thing interest-free. Installer was efficient. Tasmania's flat 8.93c feed-in tariff is decent compared to mainland states."

Saving: $1,180/yr
