How we choose the brands we install
We would rather install fewer brands we trust than every product on the market.
Tier-1 manufacturers
Panels come from established, bankable manufacturers with a track record of large-scale production.
Warranty support in Australia
Each brand has local warranty support, so a claim is handled here rather than overseas.
Approved for rebates
Products must meet Solar Victoria and STC program requirements before we quote them.
Proven on our installs
Our team has installed these products across 1,500+ Victorian homes and farms.
System compatibility
Panels, inverter and battery are matched so they work effectively together.
Safety first
Batteries are installed to Australian standards with the clearances and protection they require.
Brands and rebates
To claim the Solar Victoria rebate of up to $1,400 for solar panels, the federal STC discount or the Cheaper Home Batteries discount, your products must meet each program’s requirements. As a Solar Victoria authorised retailer, we only quote eligible products and apply your rebates on the quote.
Have a different brand already?
Our technicians service and repair systems from most major brands, including those installed by other companies.
Solar brand FAQs
What is the best solar panel brand in Australia?
There is no single best brand for every home. Jinko Solar, LONGi, Trina Solar and Canadian Solar are all Tier-1 manufacturers with Australian warranty support. Our preferred panels are Jinko Solar and Canadian Solar for their balance of performance, reliability and value.
What is the best solar battery brand?
Our preferred battery brands are FoxESS and GoodWe. We also install Sungrow, Sigenergy, Growatt, Alpha ESS and SOFAR. The best choice depends on your existing inverter, the battery size you need and whether you want blackout backup.
Can I choose the brand I want?
Yes. You can choose any brand we install. Our specialists will explain how it compares and confirm it is compatible with the rest of your system.
Do you install Tesla Powerwall?
Not at this stage. We install FoxESS, GoodWe, Sungrow, Sigenergy, Growatt, Alpha ESS and SOFAR batteries, which cover the same range of home battery sizes.
Does the brand affect my rebate?
Products must meet program requirements to qualify for Solar Victoria rebates and STC discounts. We only quote products that meet those requirements, and we apply the rebates directly on your quote.
Will a new battery work with my existing inverter?
It depends on your inverter. Some hybrid inverters accept a battery directly; others need an additional battery inverter. Our technicians check your existing system before recommending a battery. Adding a battery to existing solar.
