System Sizing and Pricing Guide

System Sizing, Pricing, and Quality Comparison

For simplicity we have divided the categories into;

Premium Systems

These systems are comprised from proven, highest quality products and come with a 10 year replacement warranty on all components. Premium systems include, KYOCERA, SHARP, SCHOTT, and SUNPOWER Solar Module systems. These providers are vertically integrated (ie produce all solar module components in house- got to love that industry jargon).

Standard Systems

These systems come with a performance only warranty on the panels, and 10 year Inverter Warranty. In order to prove the panel performance warranty you will need to test your panels at standard test conditions (25 deg and the right amount of sunlight). Inverter replacements may also incur call out and replacement labor and shipping fees.

Our Standard Systems include brands that utilise repackaged silicon wafers from large suppliers such as LDK China. These brands include proven manufacturers with representatives in Australia such as BP, Suntech, Hyundai Heavy Industies, Silex Solar, Solarfun and others. Our Standard pricing also covers vertically integrated Trina Solar module systems.

Choose carefully

When weighing up your system pricing/ sizing options we urge you to consider that you are planning the purchase of a high voltage electric technology that will be exposed to the elements for decades. Deterioration in performance will vary over time between products and you should also consider the company history behind the manufacturers of your chosen Solar modules.
