Solar across North West Melbourne’s different areas
The north-west stretches from established inner-ring suburbs to growth estates and country towns.
New estates in Craigieburn and Mickleham
Many new homes have large, unshaded roofs that suit 10kW+ systems. Battery-ready wiring is easiest to add during the build.
Post-war homes in Merri-bek
Glenroy, Pascoe Vale and Fawkner homes often have older switchboards. We check yours and list any upgrade on your quote.
Solar panel installationSunbury and Diggers Rest
Larger blocks and family homes around Sunbury suit solar with a battery for evening use.
Macedon Ranges acreage
Gisborne, Riddells Creek, Romsey and Mount Macedon properties often value backup power, and larger systems for sheds and pumps.
Farm solarAirport corridor businesses
Warehouses and workshops around Tullamarine, Campbellfield and Somerton suit 30kW to 100kW commercial systems.
Commercial solar MelbourneAlready have solar?
Many north-west homes installed small systems years ago. We can add a battery, upgrade or repair what you have.
Add a battery to existing solarLocal climate and solar potential in North West Melbourne
North West Melbourne shares the city’s temperate climate, with open plains that get plenty of sun. The Macedon Ranges are cooler and cloudier, especially in winter. Across the year, Melbourne averages roughly 4kWh of solar energy per square metre per day.
- Summer
- Around 6.3kWh/m² a day in December and January – ideal for charging a battery.
- Winter
- Around 1.7kWh/m² a day in June. Panels still produce on cloudy days.
- Roof direction
- North-facing roofs produce the most; east and west roofs spread output through the day.
- Macedon Ranges
- Higher towns like Mount Macedon see cooler, cloudier winters; we size systems on annual output.
