Understand how solar & battery works
Get to know your kWs from your kWhs. Learn why we may need to energy manage your rooftop solar from time to time or calculate your savings potential.
Know which questions to ask your installer
When you get a solar quote, it’s important to understand what’s included - and what’s not. The smart choice checklist can help you make an informed decision.
Apply for a building permit
You need a building permit for solar installations, unless exempt. So, check with your local Shire first. This ensures you meet all regulations before installing your rooftop solar system.
Get your solar ready reference number
Ready to connect? Great! You’ll need a Smart Connect Solar reference number. Your installer needs this to apply to connect to the network on your behalf.
